MICRA, not Prop 103, accounts for the relatively low growth of medical malpractice costs in California
“The litigation lobby frequently asserts that the relatively affordable status of malpractice insurance in California should be credited not to MICRA, the state’s pioneering liability-limiting law, but instead to the insurance-company-bashing Proposition 103. The AMA has already addressed this question . . . and now Californians Allied for Patient Protection, a pro-MICRA group, is out with a more thorough debunking of the claim.” (via PointofLaw.com)
