Have You Been Injured By A Doctor? Contact Marc Bern

Doctors’ offices and hospitals are now just starting to use computerized records as a form of keeping and recording information about patients. Although the technology has been around and ready to use for a while, most doctor’s offices have decided to still keep medical records on paper charts. It’s funny how we do so much online these days but doctor’s still choose to make their lives harder by keeping patient information on paper. The goal is to try to have every electronic record computerized by 2014. This will not only make things easier for doctors but will also decrease the amount of malpractice suits that are filed against doctors for botching procedures.

Attorney Marc Bern has dealt with many patients who have had procedures that have gone wrong as a result of doctors not being able to read charts. This could be for a variety of reasons but one of the most common is because the forms have not been filed out properly or because another doctors hand writing that was illegible. The use of computerized records will allow doctors to ask open-ended questions that will allow them to get valuable insight on specific areas of their patient, which paper charts do not allow. It will also allow doctors to make charts that are easier to read than paper charts and the information will be stored in databases which will allow other doctors at the office access them if their primary doctor is not available.

Dangerous working conditions resulting from incorrect charts have led to many cases of medical malpractice dealt with by attorney Marc Bern. There also has been a countless number of malpractice suits that have been filed as a result of patients being administered medication that the patient was known to be allergic to because of these messy charts. Also, there have been cases where simple procedures have resulted in death because of the lack of information about the patient. If you feel that you have suffered as a result of medical malpractice due to doctors not reading your records properly contact attorney Marc Bern.
