How Often Do Medical Malpractice Cases Arise?
Research from Johns Hopkins University shows that medical errors are the third leading cause of death in the U.S. Approximately 250,000 people lose their lives each year due to preventable medical errors. These fatalities only show a part of the overall picture, however.
Research has further shown medical mistakes harm millions of people yearly. Most people who experience medical malpractice survive, but it does not negate their hardship.
