Michigan Medical Malpractice at a Glance

There are many misconceptions about what Michigan medical malpractice really is. One common myth is that a medical malpractice case can arise from side-effects caused by prescribed medicine. Many drugs, surgeries, and procedures have commonly known side-effects and risks and these side-effects (unpredictable allergic reactions, for example) seldom form the basis for a medical malpractice case because there is an acceptable margin for error in the medical field.

Poor medical treatment such as failure to diagnose, mistreatment, and negligence is grounds for a medical malpractice lawsuit in Michigan. 

Some of the most commonly misdiagnosed diseases are:

• Lung Cancer
• Breast Cancer
• Colorectal Cancer
• Appendicitis

If any disease is misdiagnosed or if an oversight leads to complications or death, then the doctors, nurses, surgeons, or any other involved healthcare provider may be held responsible for the patient's' outcome. Because these specific diseases can be life-threatening, financial compensation may be available.
