Understanding the rising cost of medical malpractice claims is crucial for healthcare risk managers. Our recent study revealed that social inflation—where claim costs outpace general inflation—has added an estimated $2.4 to $3.5 billion to losses over the past decade. How does this trend affect risk management strategies and what steps can healthcare risk managers take to mitigate its impact? James P. Lynch, FCAS MAAA, David Moore, and Susan Boisvert explore these important questions in this recently published article in the Journal of American Healthcare Risk Management, where we've sponsored open access rights.
