Florida responded to the medical malpractice crisis through reforms and legislative changes. The first
was the 1985 Comprehensive Medical Malpractice Reform Act, which added steps that must be taken
before filing a malpractice lawsuit. The first requirement is that you must provide notice of intent to
the person/practice you are suing. The second is you much engage in pre-suit discovery. Pre-suit
discovery encourages parties to settle before going to court over a 90-day period. It allows the
practice to conduct their own investigation in order to decide whether they should settle or take it to
trial.
The second response is the 2003 Medical Malpractice legislative changes, which put caps on non-
economic damages, caps on damages in the emergency room, and narrowed who is considered an
"expert." The non-economic damages cap was overturned in 2017 by the Supreme Court. - Answers

The four elements of medical malpractice are DUTY, BREACH, CAUSATION, AND DAMAGES. You need
all four of these elements in order for there to be negligence. Duty is essentially your responsibility as
a provider to your patient. An example of this would be a physical therapist having the duty to
provide physical therapy to a patient. Breach is a breach in duty, or some type of mistake. Take a
physical therapist who is providing therapy to a patient when their hip pops out of place. The breach
has to cause an injury (Causation), and the injury has to cause damages (Damages). You need to have
some type of monetary compensation in order for the patient to get a new hip. All of these things
come together to indicate Negligence. - Answers Explain each of the four elements of the medical
malpractice.
If I ever get a call in to do a deposition, I will NOT respond on my own. Instead, I will notify my insurer

my own. - Answers Based on what Brian told you about depositions what are you going to do if you
