Schmit backs LB703 to redirect malpractice premiums
Senator Loran Schmit of Bellwood argues LB703 will shift more of the malpractice insurance dollar to patients who win suits, reducing legal and court costs. He cites Library of Congress figures showing 38 cents per premium dollar to plaintiffs and notes workers compensation patients receive about 70 cents. He says the bill speeds case handling via a medical review panel and compares to Indiana experience.
