Is 'Tort Reform' Really All The GOP Has? I Haven't Seen Anything Else From Them, Have You?
Question by Tokolosh | Posted in Politics
Americans for Insurance Reform, a project of Center for Justice & Democracy, has released a new study called True Risk: Medical Liability, Malpractice Insurance and Health Care.
It is co-written by actuary Robert Hunter, Director of Insurance for Consumer Federation of America, and former Federal Insurance Administrator and Texas Insurance Commissioner.
Its major findings are:
1. Medical malpractice premiums, inflation-adjusted, are nearly the lowest they have been in over 30 years.
2. Medical malpractice claims, inflation-adjusted, are dropping significantly, down 45 percent since 2000.
3. Medical malpractice premiums
Answer: Yes, it is, and it is ridiculous.
They know lawsuits are less than 1% of healthcare costs, it's been studied repeatedly.
They know that states that tried tort reform saw no difference, zero, in healthcare costs.
So they know it is useless, but they keep trying to push it to distract from any real reform that would actually make a difference.
