Medical liability rates are escalating to the point physicians say they can&#8217;t afford to stay in practice.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The AMA has designated medical liability reform as its No. 1 priority because skyrocketing medical liability premiums &#8212; $200,000 a year or more in some high-risk specialties &#8212; are forcing physicians to limit services, retire early, or move to a state with reforms where premiums are more stable, said Dr. Palmisano, a general and vascular surgeon from New Orleans. The crisis is threatening access to care for patients in states without liability reforms.<\/p>\n<p><TABLE border=\"1\" width=\"250\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"10\" align=\"left\"><br \/>\n<TR><br \/>\n<TD><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.unmc.edu\/newsroom\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/AMAPalmisano2003.jpg\" border=\"2\" align=\"right\" alt=\"picture disc.\"><br \/>\n<\/TD><br \/>\n<\/TR><br \/>\n<TR><br \/>\n<TD><br \/>\n<font face=\"arial\"><br \/>\nDr. Donald Palmisano with UNMC residents and medical students.<br \/>\n<\/FONT><br \/>\n<\/TD><br \/>\n<\/TR><br \/>\n<\/TABLE><\/p>\n<p>Only six states &#8211; Louisiana, Indiana, New Mexico, California, Colorado and Wisconsin &#8212; have strong tort reforms, he said, which ensure patient access to care and stabilize the liability insurance market. <\/p>\n<p>On March 13, U.S. House of Representatives passed HEALTH Act (H.R. 5), patterned after a California law that has protected patients since 1975. H.R. 5 safeguards patients&#8217; access to care through the following reforms: 1) allowing injured patients to recover unlimited economic damages; 2) limiting attorneys&#8217; contingency fees on a sliding scale; 3) capping non-economic damages at $250,000; and 4) allocating damages by holding defendants liable only for their portion of responsibility. President Bush has voiced his support for the reform, Dr. Palmisano said.<\/p>\n<p> &#8220;If you don&#8217;t have doctors, it doesn&#8217;t matter what medical coverage you have,&#8221; said Dr. Palmisano, who is confident reforms will occur. &#8220;Eventually, we&#8217;re going to win &#8211; hopefully this year &#8211; because otherwise patients are going to suffer.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><TABLE border=\"1\" width=\"250\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"10\" align=\"right\"><br \/>\n<TR><br \/>\n<TD><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.unmc.edu\/newsroom\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Palmisano2003group.jpg\" border=\"2\" align=\"right\" alt=\"picture disc.\"><br \/>\n<\/TD><br \/>\n<\/TR><br \/>\n<TR><br \/>\n<TD><br \/>\n<font face=\"arial\"><br \/>\nFrom left to right, James Armitage, M.D., Donald Palmisano, M.D., J.D., Robert Wigton, M.D., and Rowen Zetterman, M.D.<br \/>\n<\/FONT><br \/>\n<\/TD><br \/>\n<\/TR><br \/>\n<\/TABLE><\/p>\n<p>Dr. Palmisano encouraged individuals to support the medical liability reform by contacting their senators.
