RESUMO
The task of the commission of experts on medical errors is to provide a neutral and independent assessment of a treatment for which a physician is responsible and evaluate the liability issue. The objective evaluation is intended to make it easier for the person whose health has been damaged by a treatment error to assert justified claims and for the physician to reject unfounded accusations. The aim is to promote amicable dispute resolution. For the legal classification of the term "complication", a definition is necessary. The physician understands this to mean a deviation from the actual course and consequences of treatment. The lawyer sees a complication as an undesirable consequence of incorrect patients' information or treatment. One-third of all court cases end with a finding of medical malpractice. This rate corresponds to the medical malpractice rate in medical malpractice litigation. If medical malpractice is found, the physician's liability insurance is contacted to settle the claim. If the commission of experts denies medical malpractice, the patient usually refrains from taking legal action.
