摘要
Over the last decade professional practice has changed in many ways, not least in the willingness of patients to seek damages. The treasurer of the Medical Defence Union, in his report on the year 1989, stated that claims paid out on behalf of doctors in Britain doubled in frequency and the average amount awarded also doubled between 1985 and 1988, subscription rates increased fourfold. By contrast, 40 years ago life membership of a 'defence organisation' was available for less that an annual subscription today.
