The development of hospital Risk Management prevention programs will lead to improved patient care and reduce the number and cost of future medical malpractice actions. An effective Risk Management Program must gear itself toward improving patient care through identifying and reducing hospital risks. This, in turn, will tend to reduce mortality and morbidity, and, in time, reduce the number of claims filed against the hospital, as well as decreasing the liability in each case. The ultimate goal of a successful Risk Management Program is to both improve patient care, and to reduce the cost of medical malpractice for the institution.
医院风险管理预防项目的开展将带来更好的患者护理，并减少未来医疗事故诉讼的数量和成本。有效的风险管理项目必须致力于通过识别和降低医院风险来改善患者护理。反过来，这将有助于降低死亡率和发病率，并最终减少针对医院提起的索赔数量，同时降低每个案件中的责任。成功的风险管理项目的最终目标是既改善患者护理，又降低机构的医疗事故成本。
