Physician Raps Liability Rates In Texas Meeting
Houston physician Charles Webb told the Medical Professional Liability Study Commission that malpractice insurance rates may be unfairly profiting insurers and that regulators lack familiarity with the problem. He cited a Texas Trial Lawyers Association release alleging insurers overcharge doctors and hospitals to shift losses. The commission plans legislative action next year and a proposed screening board to review claims before court. Keeton opposes doctors on the board, seeking broader professional representation. The panel will discuss costs and rate effects again in June.
