Instances of medical malpractice seem to be going strong, despite recent efforts to curtail this epidemic. The 2008 election is what is gaining the public and media’s attention in which other news seems to be piling up in the news not heard graveyard. However, the two make a connection through both McCain’s and Obama’s stances on healthcare. Healthcare is a huge topic in the 2008 election that is causing people of all ages to take notice on the topic. Different healthcare programs could either make or break the difference of life and death in certain situations. These situations occur for people that might not have enough money to get the treatment that they need in order to survive. The issue of medical malpractice in NYC comes into play when the subject of doctor’s insurance rates approaches the podium. Some say that lowering the insurance rate for doctors will allow specialists to once again regain their practices offering their services to the public, who without them, would not receive the medical treatment needed. Thus if medical malpractice NYC insurance rates remain high, people won’t be able to receive the care that they need.

Others say that if doctor’s insurance rates are lowered, then it will cause doctors who should not be in practice to start practicing again. The whole reason for increasing doctors insurance rates was because there were so many instances of medical malpractice NYC that the insurance companies could not afford to pay out all of the money that was awarded to victims in the settlements. This side of the issue claims that if doctors are good at what they do, honest, and reliable should have no problem affording the high insurance rates. That if they do work people will be willing to pay more for better treatment. Of course there is also the issue that most people are not able to pay the rising costs of medical care. Well, this is exactly where the two different stances, from McCain and Obama, are put forth for the United States public to decide on.

Medical malpractice in NYC is such an issue that the 2008 election could be riding on the different medical programs that each candidate offers. Something must be done in which a decision must be made on how to handle the Medical Malpractice epidemic that is sweeping our nation. Medical malpractice in NYC is common due to the desire for doctors around the world who want to practice in NYC. For NYC has in the past, and in the present had major advances in technology. The decision as to whether medical malpractice insurance rates should be based on gaining specifically trained doctors, or making sure that faulty doctors should never be allowed to practice medicine again must be made.
