Nobody Should Believe Me
Case Files 21: Rady Children’s Part 5

I think it's just like when you look at the specialties that get sued so much, it's where there's really high stakes there. and where outcomes can be bad regardless of how good your team is, right? Right.

Well, and I think like in general, and again, this is just my reflection, but like people usually feel good about their pediatricians. People do not feel good about seeing child abuse pediatricians. So obviously this was not segmented out. That data might start shifting. As a subspecialty.

So I think we don't have, you know, I don't think we can assume that that pediatric data includes child abuse pediatricians, which is a much smaller subspecialty. But so in these statistics, the average payout in 2022 was about 379,000. So I think we probably see big numbers in these. Again, only 17% of them end up with some kind of payout.

And it said higher payouts tend to be associated with surgical error or delayed diagnosis. So something really serious and probably very provable would be my guess. So with neurosurgeons, I thought this was really interesting. So just a little under 20% of practicing neurosurgeons in the U.S. get a malpractice claim each year and is the highest of all the subspecialties.

And by age 65, nearly all neurosurgeons will have been named as a defendant in at least one malpractice claim. So that said, Paolo Bolognese is still very much in the minority here. So yes, so over an entire career, if you're a neurosurgeon, you practice for decades, you know, it's likely that you will face a couple of claims.

Um, however, if you have more than five or 10, you are already in a very small percentage. Um, if you have 11 claims that will put you in the 95th percentile. So 40 plus known claims and he's not elderly. I can't remember what age he is. You know, this is a late middle age. He's still practicing. He's still practicing.

And this puts him in a very, very small percentage of people to get sued this much. So in looking at these lawsuits, we're not going to go by them one by one. And one or two of these, I think we will do a deeper dive on because these are really interesting cases. But the claims across these lawsuits... really paint a very consistent picture.
