Apology program eyed to cut malpractice costs in Illinois
In Carbondale a group promotes the Sorry Works concept where doctors apologize quickly and offer upfront settlements to reduce malpractice suits. Victims and Families United spokesman Doug Wojcieszak says such apologies repair doctor patient trust and may lower costs, though Dr. Joseph Rubelowsky remains skeptical. Hospitals approved for the pilot would publish settlement data after a two year study.
