The appropriate way of approaching civil
claims caused entirely by medical malpractice is by arising a compensation
claim for damages and a compensation for the damage suffered. The lawsuit
should be approached in a court, or in another place, depending on where the medical
establishment is placed, where the patient was treated.
The received medical negligence claims for the patients suffered damage should cover expenses arising
from the need to treat the consequences caused by medical error. For example
the cost of medication, treatment, rehabilitation and lost wages that in the
event of injury or harm to health, cover all damages resulting from the costs.
All expenses guaranteed by the compensation must be adequate in relation to the
consequences of an error committed by the doctor. In addition to the specific
damages, the court may also award monetary compensation for non-pecuniary harm,
such as caused pain, suffering, humiliation, or perhaps other physical and
mental suffering.
It should be noted that the injured patient
can claim the compensation on his/her behalf. This claim is entitled in the
event of a total or partial loss of earning capacity, or if the injured patient
is a subject to reduced working capabilities in future.
