Unfortunately Doctors have been under financial pressure for a long time now from tightened margins and a larger operational framework where Litigation, Insurance and Business Elements have continually diminished returns for Doctors on their Investment in Medical Education. Doctors need fair representation and a financial incentive to reward the substantial time dedicated to Medical Education often graduating with substantial Loans and overhead after years of Medical Education. We get it and we support the right of Doctors to be reasonably compensated and treated fairly in exposure to Litigation claims. We are here to support Doctors in cases in need of Defense Financial Analysis on Medical Malpractice where awards are frequently out of line with the Economic Substance of the events behind them.
