In today's daily rag, an opinionist opines, "Medical malpractice lawsuits have been driving up the costs of health care for decades. In recent years, they have actually started to limit patient access to quality care. [. . . Malpractice] premiums in states with limits on non-economic awards are 17% lower than in states where attorneys have free reign."
Okay, then, genius, explain to me how Wisconsin, which has caps on malpractice awards, has health care costs that increase faster than the national average? Perhaps, more importantly, how does Wisconsin have higher malpractice insurance rates which increase faster than our non-capped neighbor Minnesota?
Again: You are entitled to your own opinion. You are not entitled to your own facts. Idiots.
