The medical profession has experienced high liability insurance premiums accompanied by widespread use of contingent fees in medical malpractice litigation. It is worthwhile, therefore, to assess qualitatively the merits of contingent fees, the evidence suggesting that they are associated with unjustified litigation and their implications for the medical and legal professions.
医疗行业经历了高额的责任保险费,同时在医疗事故诉讼中广泛采用风险代理费。因此,有必要从定性的角度评估风险代理费的优点、有证据表明它们与不合理诉讼相关以及它们对医疗和法律行业的影响。
