update: Torte Reform in Texas saves dollars !

Update from U.S. Senator John Cornyn

Sen. Murkowski and I Look On as Kelsey-Seybold Physicians Demonstrate Their New Patient Data SystemOver the last few weeks, I have had the pleasure of traveling home and attending key events in the Dallas – Fort Worth and Houston areas. I first went to the Kelsey-Seybold Clinic in Houston with fellow Republican Senator Lisa Murkowski of Alaska, where we saw firsthand the benefits of Texas’ comprehensive medical malpractice reforms made a few years ago. Together we met and talked with physicians who have relocated their practices to the area from outside Texas as a result of our malpractice laws. While some opponents of malpractice reform claim that these reforms only serve to benefit physicians, at Kelsey-Seybold this is hardly the case. There, administrators have used the $25 million they’ve saved as a result of tort reform and applied that directly to enhancing patient care by implementing a new electronic records system that improves efficiency throughout the clinic. Through tort reform, Texas has taken important steps to attract top-rate physicians to our state and improve patient care.

  11. If my doctor commits malpractice on me you bet your ass I'm gonna sue his ass which is why he has insurance. The insurance company has the money to pay they simply would rather not pay and keep the money to add to their bottom line.
