March 26, 2008

If you represent healthcare organizations or patients in malpractice cases, you don't want to miss the all new Tennessee Attorneys Memo audio conference, Vicarious Liability in Medical Malpractice Cases.

A patient dies as the result of negligence of a nurse, an emergency room physician, a radiologist, a doctor in residency. If the patient retains you as counsel, whom do you sue? The hospital, the treating physician, the doctor’s professional corporation, the university supplying the resident? What theories will you use to impute liability? If you represent the hospital or the professional corporation, how can you defend the suit?

Get the answers to these questions and much more when you participate in this all-new live event. In just 60 minutes, attorneys well-versed in medical malpractice issues will review recent legislation and court decisions to shed light on these issues, including two pending cases before the Tennessee Supreme Court: Boren v. Weeks and DeWald v. HCA Health Services of Tennessee.

Your speakers will also cover:

• Application of respondeat superior in the hospital setting
• Agency principles
  • Actual authority
  • Apparent authority
  • Waiver of apparent authority
• Hospital’s liability for acts and omissions of emergency room physicians, nurses, and physicians with hospital privileges
• Liability of medical schools and hospitals for acts of student residents
• Liability of government employees outside of statutory caps
• And there's so much more...
