HSM320 Week 3 Discussions Fremgen, B. (2012). Medical Law and Ethics, 4/e For DeVry University, 4th Edition. Pearson Learning Solutions. Discussion 1 How has the physician-patient relationship changed over the past century? Are the changes good or bad for the delivery of quality healthcare? Welcome to week 3! I am enjoying our interesting discussions about healthcare and the legal and ethical aspects. This week, we are going to discuss the relationship between the physician and the patient and see how it has evolved. We know that the changes in healthcare have also lead to changes in the relationship sand the delivery of quality. How has this relationship evolved? How will healthcare reform affect this relationship? I look forward to our discussions. Discussion 2 Following Mrs. Cary’s admission to the hospital, she has initiated a lawsuit against Family Practice Medical Group (FPMG) and Community Hospital. Her suit claims that Dr. Smith failed to properly supervise his employees and as a result, she received the wrong medication which caused her hospitalization for hypotension (low blood pressure) and delayed treatment for her infection which then became life-threatening. She is also suing Community Hospital because the office staff members are hospital employees. In the lawsuit, is there likely to be a judgment against the hospital? Or FPMG? Why? Welcome to the second thread! We will continue our discussion about malpractice and we will discuss this scenario where the patient feels that she was not treated properly for her condition which lead to complications and longer hospitalization. The lawsuit targeted the physician and the hospital. Let's hear from you what you think about the case and see who should be held responsible, if anyone.
