Medical Malpractice New York Insurance Rates to be Frozen

Article by Paul Justice

Doctors have been complaining that the increasing amount of medical malpractice insurance is so high, that it is literally driving them out of the state of New York to practice somewhere else. The fact of the matter is that the rates have been so high because there have been so many payouts in settlements of medical malpractice cases.

This statement seems rather odd due to their large salaries, however when a case of medical malpractice occurs everything changes.
