Until an MD leaves a medical tool inside you during surgery.  You'd 
better leave recourse for that.  Certainly malpractice insurance adds a 
ridiculous amount to our medical bills.  It probably wouldn't be so 
necessary if all doctors were interested in practicing medicine and not 
just as a source of revenue so they can spend more time on the golf 
course.  And malpractice insurance is only part of the medical bloat.  
Requiring a staff to deal with health insurance companies is another.  
Gee, it all comes back to insurance.  Time to scrutinize the ENTIRE 
insurance scam ... er I mean industry.
