University of Washington Medical Center is an academic medical center providing the latest in medical discoveries, diagnoses and treatments. Their physicians not only treat patients, but also conduct research experiments and teach young medical professionals. UW Medical Center does a wonderful job helping thousands of people every year. But the fact that many of the staff members are interns and many of the procedures are experimental incidents involving medical malpractice or hospital negligence can and do happen. In fact, there are medical malpractice and negligence cases at UW Medical Center every year.
Interesting Statistics: Just 5.1 percent of doctors account for 54.2 percent of the malpractice payouts, according to data from the National Practitioner Data Bank. Of the 35,000 doctors who have had two or more malpractice payouts since 1990, only 7.6 percent of them have been disciplined. And only 13 percent of doctors with five medical malpractice payouts have been disciplined.
