You really think that malpractice insurance is going up because of lawsuits? I'd guess that it has a hell of a lot more to do with insurance companies doing their revenue projections in the 90s based on investment gains that vaporized... the "insurance fraud" argument and "malpractice insurance" argument are red herrings.
