How much does the medical liabilty system add to health care costs? How can medical errors be reduced? How often are nonemergency patients treated in hospital emergency departments, and how can those patients be shifted to more appropriate settings?
These are some of the questions that were discussed at a September 7 National Press Club briefing sponsored by Health Affairs. Video of the briefing and speaker presentation materials are available on the Health Affairs Web site. The briefing featured authors from the September issue of Health Affairs, titled “Medical Malpractice And Errors,” which was released at the event.
