Faced with increasing

people move around more

than they used’ to, doctors
see more new patients, The

patient who doesnot know a
doctor well, Low says, is

“quicker to criticize and

more likely to sue,
There are a-number of

steps the doctor can take to -
‘ protect himself, Low says.

The most important one is
to. keep ood, detailed
* records. .
Otherwise, he notes, the,
doctor woh’t be. able to.

_ remember the details of the

patient's medical problem,
‘particularly if the patient

came in only once or twice.

Also, the-doctor-should be

“There's no frie tonveHit
unless the patient’ s told of

Low says, -

Doctors should.also, Low.

says, make sure they keep
up with improvements’ in

medical techniques by
regularly attending 7
‘ conferences.

Finally, the careful doctor
should know when to pass on

-a case If he does not have

the expertise or facilities to
deal with it.adequately. -
Ina malpractice suit, Low
points oul,
doesn't have to prove a
physician -is incompetent;

only that “on a given day -

and at a given time, the

doctor's. performance fell

expected of him."

- Low also notes. that more |

malpractice sults are
