Of a Med Mal case, what percentage does the plaintiff usually receive? I assume these cases are to help reimburse the patient/plaintiff for drastic changes that have happened to him/her because of actual malpractice ...i.e...Amputating a leg instead of an arm... With the new insurance bill that has some of the provisions that we know about now....if a patient becomes severely incapacitated because the medical team decided to just not treat aggressively what was wrong, what then? What if it was a government decision that caused either the delay or the faulty decision?
