The Real Consequences of Medical Professional Negligence

According to the American Academy of Family Physicians, two studies showed that family physicians reported extreme consequences due to medical errors 85% of the time.

According to the American Academy of Family Physicians, two studies showed that family physicians reported extreme consequences due to medical errors 85% of the time.  In these studies, the word “error” was used in a broad sense very deliberately.  That way, the study could include medical errors that didn’t have extreme consequences.  Its findings prove that there are serious and life-changing consequences that arise after a medical professional commits negligence against a patient.  What are the true consequences of medical malpractice and negligence?  Read on to find out.

Emotional Struggle

 

Not many tend to consider the emotional effect that medical errors can have.  First and foremost, a sense of trust between patient and doctor is lost.  No longer can you feel like your doctor wants the best for you.  This could prevent someone from seeking medical attention in the future.  Likewise, you and your family are at risk for severe emotional consequence.   The prospect of a life living with a debilitating condition can destroy anyone’s emotional state.  When this isn’t your fault, the emotional devastation can be overwhelming.

 

Future Health Damages

 

Medical errors may sometimes lead to other health issues.  For instance, a misdiagnosis can lead to wrongly prescribed medication, leading to potential medical consequences.  When this happens, you’re even more financially disadvantaged, because you’re burdened with yet another health issue.  And, as before, it’s not your fault.  Why should you have to pay for future health damages?

 

Financial and Time Losses

 

Not only do you have medical bills that must pay for the consequences of someone else’s mistake, you’ll also lose time at work, denting your income.  This can even affect your loved ones, should they need to care for you.  That loss of income can seriously detriment your ability to support yourself, and could potentially ruin your life.  This is a kind of consequence you can’t ignore.  If you’re severely financially disadvantaged after a medical error, it’s time to seek justice.
