11/23/2004: Going Beyond the 'Medical Malpractice Myths' -- Three Letters to the Editor of the Washington Post

The Washington Post; subscription may be required

Excerpt: Why is it that when a doctor weighs in on the medical malpractice crisis ['Dispelling Malpractice Myths,' op-ed, Nov. 14], the solution never includes giving the public access to the National Practitioner Data Bank, with its record of malpractice claims payments and out-of-court settlements made on behalf of individual doctors? By blocking public access to these records, physicians perpetuate the malpractice crisis.
