Story out of Washington (state) detailing a potential medical malpractice reform bill:

Baird, D-Wash., conducted forums with medical leaders in Longview on Monday and at the Southwest Washington Medical Center in Vancouver on Tuesday. The congressman told doctors and hospital administrators that his package will target bad doctors, discourage frivolous malpractice lawsuits, establish mediation for medical disputes, lower insurance rates and cap "pain and suffering" settlements, but at a level more than triple the damage limit suggested by President Bush.

Dr's have swarn an oath to eachother not to their patients. I feel no pity for their malpractice rates as long as they continue to protect these jerks instead of taking them down.
