Us House of Representatives passes tort reform bill to limit malpractice recovery
Earlier this week, the House of Representatives voted to pass a tort reform bill that would severely limit medical malpractice recovery for those seeking restitution and damages from doctors and devices causing unreasonable harm and physical injury.
A bipartisan malpractice reform bill just introduced in the House would cap non-economic damages at $250,000, mirroring successful laws in California and Texas, according to a release by the AMA.
