Malpractice In The Emergency Room

The fast-paced, high-volume environment of an emergency room lends itself to rushed care, and that can lead to errors. In fact, emergency room malpractice makes up approximately 20% of all medical malpractice lawsuits.

According to the National Center for Biotechnology Information, errors in diagnosis and improper performance of a procedure are the two most common types of errors that occur in emergency rooms.
