2 CommentsHow to blacklist patients with medical malpractice claims.
The website lists plaintiffs who have brought unsuccessful cases.
The company, which says it’s based in the Caribbean to shield itself from lawsuits, hopes eventually to expand into a nationwide database. An information page for doctors on the site reads: "A physician may feel that a patient who has filed a medical malpractice suit and lost a trial before a jury of their peers harbors unrealistic expectations of their physician and probably of the health care system at large. Accordingly, a responsible physician who feels that a patient’s behavior demonstrates unrealistic medical expectations has both a right (and arguably a responsibility) to refuse elective care to that patient."
