When Can I Sue for Medical Negligence?

Not every poor medical outcome is the result of negligence. Sometimes a doctor can do everything right but their patient still doesn’t get better. In order to file a medical malpractice lawsuit, you must be able to prove that your doctor, nurse, or other healthcare professional acted negligently.

The following elements are necessary in order to sue for medical negligence:

  • Duty of Care - Whether it is your primary care physician or a specialist, your doctor has a responsibility to treat you to the best of their ability. At a minimum, they are required to provide a standard of care that could be expected from another physician with a similar level of training and expertise.
  • Breach of Duty - A doctor, nurse, or other healthcare professional that does not uphold the standard of care is in breach of the duty owed to their patient. That breach of care may involve misdiagnosing their patient’s condition, not ordering the right tests, or prescribing the wrong medication.
  • Causation - A breach of duty by your physician may not be enough to have a medical malpractice case; you must be able to prove that your doctor’s negligence caused you to suffer harm. An example of this would be if your doctor failed to diagnose your cancer right away, costing you months of lifesaving treatment.
  • Damages - The final element of a medical malpractice case is damages. These are financial, physical, and emotional losses that resulted from your doctor’s negligence. Damages could be the cost of medical treatment, pain and suffering, and permanent disability.

If you are unsure whether you have a case for medical negligence or not, contact the experienced Wichita medical malpractice attorneys at Hutton & Hutton Law Firm, LLC. We can examine the details of your case during a free consultation.
