Is it legal (enforceable) for a Doctor to have a waiver (in the intake paperwork) limiting "any" malpractice claims to $10,000?
I don't know the code, but I have been asked to sign such waivers, myself, and refused. I don't believe anyone can be made to sign away their legal rights when they go to a doctor's office. Anyway, when I refused to sign--the point wasn't pressed. Disclaimer: I am not an attorney. This is for discussion purposes only and should not be construed as legal advice. For legal advice, it is best to consult an attorney.
