Financial compensation for malpractice

ERMES (Medical Error in Healthcare) offers an absolutely free consultation with no obligation for the assessment of medical damage, with the sole purpose of informing the interested party about the possibility of requesting financial compensation for medical responsibility.
A study published on 3rd May 2016 in the British Medical Journal online version reports that if medical error were considered a disease, it would be classified as the third leading cause of death in the United States after cancer and heart disease.
The medical error is not reported in death certificates or in classifications of causes of death, since it is not in itself a disease and therefore it's not included in the international classifications of diseases.
It is estimated that preventable medical errors cause between 200,000 and 400,000 deaths each year in the United States alone.
In Europe, the situation is no better, even if there are no official statistics and data.
The large number of deaths by medical error must help health professionals to evaluate what could be done to reduce systematically the causes of errors and increase the diligence of surgeons and doctors.
People who have been injured by medical negligence may request compensation from the responsible doctor, the medical staff or the health facility where the intervention took place, such as a hospital or clinic.
In defense of doctors who are unjustly accused of error, it must be said that many doctors have been acquitted of negligence charges, in the absence of errors in the execution of health treatments, even in the case of death of the patient, if that is not attributable to the medical staff's conduct.
