In every state, the "statute of limitations" sets a limit on the amount of time a patient has to file a malpractice claim against a healthcare provider. If the plaintiff does not file a lawsuit within this deadline, they lose the right to sue for medical malpractice relating to the incident in question. There are, however, a few exceptions to this rule that are often missed by doctors.
So today, we’re going to talk about TWO frequently overlooked items when it comes to malpractice statute of limitations and what you can do to ensure that you’re protected against claims for the long haul.
