[Title] => Doctors claim malpractice law bad for health
[Summary] => Passage of the proposed medical malpractice bill would only encourage quack medicine in the country, the Philippine College of Physicians (PCP) warned yesterday.
The physicians also said any malpractice law would accelerate health care cost and undermine patient-doctor relationship.
The PCP, the umbrella of the country’s organizations of specialists in internal medicine, in a manifesto said House Bill 4955 or the malpractice bill maligns and compromises the "art of healing" and would criminalize doctors’ blunders to the level of a hardened criminal.
