What Amounts to Medical Malpractice?
Medical malpractice is the legal term for a situation where a qualified healthcare provider fails to provide the accepted standard of care when treating their patients, resulting in harm, injury, or even death of that patient.
Who Can Be Liable for Medical Malpractice?
Anyone responsible for the injury or death of a patient due to negligence while providing healthcare may be liable for medical malpractice. This could include a nurse, a surgeon, a doctor, or even the medical facility where the patient received treatment before their death.
What Damages Are Available for Victims of Malpractice?
In most cases, plaintiffs may be able to recover compensatory damages, which include medical expenses and lost income. Other damages that might be available for medical malpractice victims include:
- Pain and suffering emotional distress.
- The loss of quality of life.
- Loss of consortium.
In cases where the judge or jury rules that the medical provider or facility was extremely negligent, Montana laws allow the court to award the plaintiff punitive damages not exceeding $10 million or 3% of the defendant's net worth (whichever amount is less).
What Happens When Someone Dies Due to Medical Malpractice?
The survivors of the deceased may be awarded wrongful death damages and compensation for funeral and burial expenses. If applicable, they may also be entitled to compensation for the loss of financial support and companionship their loved one would have provided had they been alive.
