Apparently, physicians will be legally protected from having their own apology used against them in a malpractice lawsuit. Also, all malpractice disputes will be required to go through mediation before a lawsuit can be filed.

Comments?

Also, all malpractice disputes will...e in front of a jury, just slows it up a bit.
