[Medical malpractice from the physician's viewpoint]
Abstract:
Medicine has more severely changed during the last three decades than in the whole time before. The development may be summarized in one sentence: With it's new techniques in diagnostic and treatment, medicine has become more successful and at the same time more complex and more dangerous. To protect the reputation of this profession and to ease the relationship between physicians and patients regarding malpractice, independent medical bodies of experts in the form of arbitration or expert committees were introduced in Germany in 1975.
