When medical malpractice leads to patient harm, several types of damages may be pursued as part of injury claims against negligent healthcare providers. Categories of potential compensation in medical negligence cases include:

Economic damages in malpractice cases aim to cover quantifiable monetary losses related to an incident of medical negligence.

• Medical expenses: All healthcare costs associated with additional treatment needed to address injuries caused by substandard care are included, from hospital bills to long-term care.
• Lost income: Diminished earning capacity and wages lost while recovering from malpractice injuries are calculated, often with assistance from vocational experts regarding impact on employment.
• Rehabilitation costs: Any costs stemming from therapies, assistive devices, home healthcare, wheelchair-accessible transportation, etc. necessitated by disabilities caused by incompetent care.

Noneconomic damages compensation focuses on losses harder to assign a clear monetary figure, including:

• Pain and suffering: Monies attempting to compensate for physical pain and emotional distress arising from disfigurement, loss of mobility, lifelong disabilities or other fallout.
• Loss of consortium: Compensation for negatively impacted intimacy and companionship with a spouse, often severely strained by catastrophic malpractice injuries.

If medical negligence shows intentional malice, extreme recklessness or blatant gross negligence substantially outside the bounds of normal errors, punitive damages may apply to further punish the actions.

This includes mistakes made by doctors, nurses, surgeons, medical technicians, anesthesiologists, dentists, OBGYNs, chiropractors, therapists, pharmacists, and all other licensed healthcare providers.

These medical professionals review all records to identify errors and help establish exactly where acceptable standards of patient care were breached, directly causing the claimed injuries or damages.

Factors affecting a potential malpractice settlement can include the severity of injury/disability sustained, degree and permanence of physical and emotional trauma, amount of past and future rehabilitation & treatments needed, lost income and decreased earning capacity, and impact on personal/family life including loss of consortium.
