Medical liability reform: The time for action is now

Hoven talks about the newly introduced bill: the Help Efficient, Accessible, Low-cost, Timely Healthcare (HEALTH) Act of 2011. The HEALTH Act would reduce costs while ensuring that patients who have been injured due to negligence receive just compensation. At the same time, it would promote speedier resolutions to disputes and maintain access to courts. In addition, the HEALTH Act protects effective state medical liability reform laws. Here, she also discusses how medical liability reforms have made a difference in both California and Texas.
