i want to start going to college to become one but i hear its not worth it so much because all the blaming and sueing ?

some physicians with high risk coverage, such as OB-GYNs and anesthesiology to move to states that have passed tort reform laws. In 2003, Ohio passed a similar law to prevent the flight of OB-GYNs to other states. Do you think it is fair to the injured party to have a state law limit the amount that can be recovered in a medical malpractice suit?

How much does the average malpractice insurance cost for a psychiatrist? Annually and monthly.

Well I was wondering how much would malpractice insurance cost for an orthopedic spine surgeon. I chose this profession because I would like to specialize in the treatment of scoliosis and other spinal problems since it saddens me to see people suffer from those kind of Medical conditions. I would like to live somewhere like Seattle where I will do a lot of work on people in big cities and hopefully help others from other countries coming to the U.S for treatment and which state treats the most people for spine problems?

Do you know how much malpractice insurance costs?

I'm a student and part of the requirements of the program is to purchase malpractice insurance...so I was wondering if anyone knew how much it cost?

If the government puts a cap on medical malpractice insurance and law suites, would that drive costs down? How ethical would it be, and do you think the Democrats and Republicans would let such a bill pass? No hate answers please and this question will be put to a vote. Thanks in advance for answering..

I will be starting medschool in Iowa next year (I am originally from Canada). I was wondering how much malpractice insurance cost and what is your net income at the end? Please state your position also. In Canada, hardly anyone ever sues, even when big screw ups happen. However, it is not the same in the States. So I was wondering what net income do you generally take home? Thanks :)
