A physician overhears some perceptions on medical malpractice while in the sauna.
Off topic, if Dr. iBear is listening, I can’t view your blog on Mozilla – the browser of choice for many.

That’s why liability insurance is never, ever mentioned during a trial. Of any kind.
However, it’s a long way from a guy in a sauna talking about it to a insurance company paying it. A looooonnnnngggg way.
I mean a personal injury trial.
Actually, about half the states do permit mention of insurance at trial.
And, of course, a statement by a plaintiff that he is really after the insurance money might be an exception to the general rule in the other half.
Can this be a ground for counter-suit ?
