Who can be held accountable for medical malpractice?

Generally, a medical malpractice claim may be pursued against the health care providers who rendered negligent medical or health care to a patient. This may include, for example, physicians, nurses and hospitals. In certain circumstances, the employers of the health care providers may also be liable for their negligent employees. In such cases, medical malpractice claims may also be brought against the partnerships, professional associations, and corporations that employed the negligent health care provider(s) at the time of the malpractice.
