Team Upstate:
I highly recommend attending the MEC-sponsored fireside chat on Wednesday, 10 JUL 2024, WSK 103, from 5-6pm with local attorneys Mr. Martin Lynn and Mr. Walter Benson. Both have extensive experience in medical malpractice and related fields.
Understanding clinicians do not receive much exposure to medical-legal topics during their formal education and training, we plan to make this conversation a fast-paced tour through information that every clinician needs to know. We plan to discuss:
- myths about medical malpractice
- what you can do to avoid being named in a claim
- what is the first thing you do if you are named
- why are claims structured they way they are
- why claims take so long to resolve
- etc.
We will also take your questions.
Whether you are a student, trainee, or attending, I think you may learn something new and important.
Thanks for reading.
Stephen
