Los Angeles Kaiser Malpractice Attorney
If you’re suffering from an injury or serious health complication due to the treatment you received at a Kaiser Foundation Hospital or from a doctor or physician at a Kaiser Permanente facility, you may have grounds to file a medical malpractice lawsuit.
It’s important for anyone who is considering filing a medical malpractice or negligence lawsuit against one of Kaiser’s three entities---Kaiser Foundation Health Plan, Kaiser Foundation Hospitals, Inc., and the Permanente Medical Group--- to speak with a Los Angeles medical malpractice lawyer who has experience representing plaintiffs in Kaiser malpractice cases. Kaiser malpractice cases are slightly different than medical malpractice cases involving other hospitals and doctors. In most cases a patient can sue the doctor or hospital for damages by taking the hospital or doctor to trial if need be. What many Kaiser patients don’t realize is that when they signed the contract for insurance with Kaiser, they agreed to give up their rights to file a medical malpractice lawsuit in the court system. Instead, if a patient thinks he or she has a medical malpractice claim, they must address and resolve the issue through arbitration.
