You are willing to give up your right to sue for peanuts? Medical
malpractice costs are 1-2% of health care costs. Some incompetent doctor

pain and suffering? Not me.

If this was really criminal incompetence prosecute it in criminal
court.
That money you get is coming from everyone else, not the doctor.
If you want to be insured against mistakes, make that a separate
policy others can opt out of, not part of "medical insurance". They
we all won't be paying for a few bad doctors.


What if it's not criminal? What if it's criminal, but can't be prosecuted
for various techincal reasons? $250K is nothing. OIC... buy more
unaffordable insurance is the answer! NOT
