How to Report a Claim
Prompt reporting of claims and potential claims (incidents, circumstances and/or records requests that could reasonably give rise to a claim) is a critical first step in the defense of a claim. Even if a formal allegation has not yet been made, reporting adverse patient outcomes puts us on notice that a claim may develop in the future. It is always best to err on the side of caution when determining if an incident should be reported. The sooner we know about a matter then the sooner we can devote our resources to mitigate any future claims that may arise.
