Medical malpractice insurance. Part II. Some proposed solutions

AE James Jr

Organized groups of physicians should be considered potential initiators of any concerted effort to solve the medical malpractice problem. This may occur by a number of means, among them (a) establishment of malpractice review panels, (b) a patient's compensation board, (c) no-fault malpractice insurance, (d) substitution of claims-made insurance policies for the present- occurrence system now in use, and (e) malpractice insurance funds supported by insurance premiums and administered by panels composed in part of insured physicians. Cooperation between the insurance industry and the legal and medical professions might make it unnecessary for external agencies to impose regulations and policies at some future date.
