Malpractice may simply be defined as the unwarranted departure from generally accepted standards of medical practice resulting in injury to a patient.
When a physician undertakes the care of a sick or injured patient the physician does not impliedly promise that the patient will be cured or even substantially benefited by treatment. It is naturally hoped that the patient will be benefited, but the law recognizes that good results are not always attainable.
Commonly physicians may become professionally liable for malpractice in one of five ways:
1. Through the physician's own negligence (failing to conform to generally accepted medical practice).
2. Through the negligence of the physician's employees (Respondeat Superior--the employer is liable for harm due to the negligent conduct of employees for actions occurring during or arising out of the employment relationship).
3. Through failing to obtain the informed consent of the patient prior to treatment.
4. Through breaching the physician-patient contractual relationship (for example, by abandoning the patient, disclosing confidential information, or guaranteeing a cure or some other specific result).
5. Through the negligence of the physician's partners.
