Settlements & Verdicts In Adventist Health Lawsuits
At Advent Health each of their 49 hospitals are sued for injuries due to medical negligence annually. Some of these cases are due to medication errors or infections acquired while under their care. These 2 case types are usually smaller than negligence claims stemming from a surgical error or a cancer misdiagnosis. The national average for these cases are in the $250,000.00 mark but our Florida medical malpractice attorneys have obtained settlements in excess of $500,00 which is twice the national average.
Our medical negligence attorneys have also secured very large settlements as well as jury verdicts against AdventHealth facilities for cases regarding medical misdiagnosis as well as surgical errors. While the details of these claims are confidential they have all far exceeded $1,000,000.00. The most common of these cases are cancer misdiagnosis lawsuits where the cancer is undiagnosed or there was a delay in the diagnosis. Breast and lung cancer are the most common types of cancers that are inaccurately diagnosed.
Adventist Health was also named in a whistleblower lawsuit in 2012. As a result in 2015 they were ordered to pay the government $118.7 million to settle allegations it offered doctors excessive compensation for referrals. This was a record breaking settlement amount and it was close to double the previous record which was set just one week prior.
