I gave you a chart. Now you dont' like it. LOL
And, you arent' even considering surgery centers, imaging centers, RK centers, etc.
Max: One person? You are out of your mind. that isn't what that chart is saying. Every radiologist in a group once they make partner makes the roughly the same salary. That is the deal.
Florida: Why is that my responsibility? And, it wasn't for all physicians..the article specifically was talking about OB/GYN.
Florida is unique in many respects..from the nature of liability to the type of patients they see.
And, florida law regarding liability is also different. Huge settlements are given for "pain and suffering."
The Florida malpractice carriers have the ability to settle a case whether you agree with them or not and whether you did wrong or not.
• You are held personally liable for all monetary judgments over your practice liability limits unless you tell the insurance company to settle the case for the limits whether you did wrong or not. The average Florida case is for over $1 million today.
• The Florida Constitutional limits of $500,000 on non-economic (pain and suffering) damages are unconstitutional per circuit court. This appeal is now before the Florida Supreme Court. KaChing!!!
• The Florida Supreme Court has ruled that an expert witness may testify based on their personal knowledge or experience and not based on the medically accepted norms in the field of their expertise. KaChing!!!
• Florida is the only state in the union to have a "three strikes and you're out" constitutional amendment. This broadly interprets that should a Florida jury or arbitrator find you at fault for a malpractice event, you will be assigned a strike. This is retroactive, and incidents in other states count. After three strikes, your license will be permanently revoked. KaCHING!!!
• The Florida Supreme Court has ruled that all medical expert testimony, whether true or a complete lie is fully protected on the witness stand and granted absolute immunity ... expert perjury, libel, or slander is legal.KaChing!!!
P.S. Since you are such a complete dipshit, i'll clue you in. 2/3rds of all doctors in S. Florida ARE UNINSURED. Oops. That means they aren't paying the 200K you use.
Game. Set. Match.
