Abstract
Fortunately, psychiatrists are less likely to be sued for malpractice than most physicians in other specialties. However, once sued, psychiatrists must navigate a complicated and nonintuitive legal process. This article reviews the major elements of a malpractice claim, the litigation process in medical malpractice cases, and the common allegations of negligence that are encountered in such cases. The major types of malpractice insurance coverage are reviewed, and recommendations about liability prevention and how to best respond to a malpractice action are presented.
摘要
幸运的是，与其他专科的大多数医生相比，精神科医生被起诉医疗事故的可能性较小。然而，一旦被起诉，精神科医生必须应对一个复杂且不符合直觉的法律程序。本文回顾了医疗事故索赔的主要要素、医疗事故案件的诉讼程序以及此类案件中常见的过失指控。还回顾了主要的医疗事故保险类型，并提出了关于预防责任以及如何最佳应对医疗事故诉讼的建议。
