 If you could reform the malpractice or tort laws, what types of changes would you make? When do you feel it is                                      appropriate for someone to claim damages from medical procedures or treatment? Do you feel there should be a cap on                        the payments, and if so, how would you decide what that cap would be? What are all the different costs involved in                                medical malpractice suites? Is it easier to talk about tort reform than to actually try to define it?

You should make a claim for damages if there are signs of negligence or malpractice. A patient should always be informed of possible consequences of a course of treatment, including surgery or even administrating medicine. Among the acts or omissions that may potentially support a medical malpractice claim are the failure to properly diagnose a disease or medical condition, the failure to provide appropriate treatment for a medical condition, and unreasonable delay in treating a diagnosed medical condition.
