Question:
Should I talk to an insurance company after a medical malpractice injury?
Answer:
The question is, if you have been injured as the result of medical malpractice, should you talk to anyone associated with the hospital? We had a woman several weeks ago who called in, and she believed that she had an injury that was the result of medical malpractice. She asked us if she should she speak to the hospital.
If you’re reading this and you’re going through something similar, you may be asking yourself the same question – should you speak to someone associated with the hospital? After all, how else are they going to know what happened to you if you don’t tell them? The answer to that is, no, you should not speak to them without having first hired an attorney. In other words, you should never speak to hospital representatives without your own attorney present. It will not end well for you if you attempt to speak to a risk manager, or anyone associated with the hospital, on your own.
A risk manager is not only attempting to evaluate the nature of your claim and how much money your claim might end up costing the hospital, that risk manager is also trying to establish the credibility of your claim. That risk manager is going to ask you questions, whether intended or not, that will possibly discredit your claim. You are under no obligation to give statements to anyone associated with the hospital. You’re under no obligation to give, comply, or cooperate with an entity that has injured you. You should immediately consult with an attorney.
If you are being contacted by a risk manager, that probably means you have a pretty decent malpractice case and that they are taking it seriously, and you want to engage with an attorney who has experience in medical malpractice. If you are in this position and you have questions about it, we would be more than happy to sit down with you and answer any questions you might have.
