    Florida Bill Seeks to Curb Medical Malpractice Claims

    The Republican-controlled Florida Legislature is pushing ahead this year with changes meant to curb medical malpractice lawsuits against doctors.

    This effort is being criticized as an attack on the privacy rights of patients and comes at a time when fewer medical malpractice claims are being filed, according to state regulators.

    Lawmakers are seeking to make it harder to prove a doctor has committed medical malpractice and to permit an attorney to privately interview doctors without the patient or patient’s attorney in the same room.

    Rep. Matt Gaetz, R-Fort Walton Beach and sponsor of the House bill, said his legislation will make Florida more attractive for doctors. One of the aims of his legislation is to cut down on the number of unneeded tests given by doctors to ward off potential lawsuits, he said.

    “This will be a great place to practice medicine,” Gaetz said.

    A House panel on Monday became the third committee to approve the bill (HB 385). A similar version is now moving in the Senate as well.
