Many states across the country, including Maryland, have passed so-called “apology” laws that enable physicians and other medical professionals to express regret about situation without that apology being admissible during malpractice trial. The StudyThe study, which comes from researchers at Vanderbilt University, was published at the end of 2016. Maryland’s law specifically states that any expression of regret that medical professional makes – whether it be in person, in writing or by some type of conduct – is inadmissible in lawsuit. While it is good idea to understand the law in Maryland, it should have no bearing on how patient who has suffered harm at the hands of medical professional or facility pursues compensation.
