Suffering and pain

Future medical treatment and damages

In a medical malpractice case, there are two types of damages a plaintiff can seek: economic and non-economic damages.

The latter are more difficult to quantify and encompass the suffering and pain as well as loss of enjoyment of life. In a medical malpractice lawsuit, malpractice the jury will need to hear testimony from experts to determine the kind of losses.

Past medical expenses are easy to prove by submitting actual bills from the person who was injured's health healthcare providers. The attorney representing the plaintiff will present medical evidence to show the types of treatments that are likely to be needed in the future, and how much they will cost in the present. The amount of future medical treatments required could be affected by the victim's age at the time of malpractice.

Damages for future lost wages can be proven by showing the impact of an injury on the patient's ability to work and earn in the future. This can be proven by expert testimony from a witness or by looking at similar cases in the preceding.
