The HR 5 bill, known as the Help Efficient, Accessible, Low-Cost, Timely Healthcare (HEALTH) Act, aims to take away the legal rights of injured patients, remove any incentives to improve patient safety, and leave people at risk for more injures from negligent care. This bill would impose a $250,000 federal cap on non-economic damages; inadequate compensation for someone seriously injured due to the negligence of a doctor or hospital.
HR 5 is a terrible deal for the American people. I have written post after post about the corporate fleecing of our civil justice rights and the trampling of the 7th Amendment by corporate interests and the politicians whose campaigns are profiting from these interests. It is a horrible fate to be a victim of negligence especially in the operating room by someone whose hands you placed your life or the life of a loved one. If my message is not getting across to you, maybe this video will.
