Under the French implementation of the Scandinavian system, wronged patients bring claims before their regions’ government-appointed review board which is responsible for determining if compensation is in order and, if so, how much. For a patient to get paid, the board does not have to find the doctor at fault, or that medical negligence caused whatever pain and suffering the patient is experiencing. Money for patient relief comes from a national compensation fund, which presumably gets its cash either from a dedicated tax insurance premium placed on doctors and hospitals, or from general fund revenues. The closest analogy to this sort of system in the United States would be workers’ compensation funds that many states run. The goal of such systems is not to find fault or establish causation as much as it is to provide a bit of compensation to workers who are injured on the job.
Shut your face you dangerous minority.

:tup: I really like that malpractice suits are handled by a government appointed board, not a bunch of idiots too stupid to get out of jury duty.
I’ll vote now. Some aspects. I’d still want to see tort reform tied to it so the sue happy American populous isn’t suing that board when they’re told the minor injury they received while a Dr was saving them from massive trauma is worth zero dollars.
