The website lists plaintiffs who have brought unsuccessful cases. Patients have information on physicians’ malpractice history. This evens the playing field:
The company, which says it’s based in the Caribbean to shield itself from lawsuits, hopes eventually to expand into a nationwide database. An information page for doctors on the site reads: “A physician may feel that a patient who has filed a medical malpractice suit and lost a trial before a jury of their peers harbors unrealistic expectations of their physician and probably of the health care system at large. Accordingly, a responsible physician who feels that a patient’s behavior demonstrates unrealistic medical expectations has both a right (and arguably a responsibility) to refuse elective care to that patient.”
