First Applauds Bush Comments On Medical Malpractice Reform

January 16th, 2003 - WASHINGTON, D.C. -- U.S. Senator Bill Frist (R-TN) made the following statement in support of President Bush’s comments in Pennsylvania today on the need for medical malpractice reform: “I applaud the President for bringing attention to this national health care crisis. Again and again we hear the horror stories - trauma centers closing, doctors striking, specialists quitting, and expectant mothers having serious difficulty even finding a doctor. The President is right. This is a crisis of health care access and skyrocketing costs, and we know what needs to done - passing meaningful medical litigation reform. “I don’t want this issue to be slowed by petty politics. We must act soon before the quality of health care is further compromised. I look forward to working with my colleagues on both sides of the aisle to enact meaningful medical litigation reform this year.”

Understaffed hospitals or ill-equipped emergency rooms may lead to fatal errors while dealing with patients requiring emergency treatment. When the necessary steps of treating an emergency room patient are sidestepped, then an emergency error may result.
