The National Practitioner Data Bank will record any payments made for any reason related to a malpractice suit in a central data bank available to a number of designated parties. Hospitals will be required to request this information to screen applicants and at least every 2 years for appointment renewals. The data bank may also be consulted by hospitals and state licensing boards as they deem necessary and by professional societies when reviewing membership applications. It is in the best interests of all malpractice defendants to insist on adequate representation of their personal, professional, and financial interests, which may necessitate insurance carriers providing each defendant with individual counsel.
国家从业者数据库将把因医疗事故诉讼相关的任何原因所支付的款项记录在一个中央数据库中，供一些指定方使用。医院将被要求获取此信息以筛选申请人，并至少每两年进行一次续任审查。医院和州许可委员会在认为必要时也可查阅该数据库，专业协会在审查会员申请时也可查阅。所有医疗事故被告坚持充分代表其个人、专业和财务利益是符合其最佳利益的，这可能需要保险公司为每个被告提供单独的法律顾问。
