Dr. Jeffrey Segal, a neurosurgeon, attorney and founder of Medical Justice, returns to the podcast for Episode 4.2, where he and David discuss current legal landmines facing physicians.
Jeff begins with the topic of licensing and how doctors typically become involved with investigations into their licenses by state departments and the various outcomes that can occur. He covers private letters of concern, public admonitions, license restrictions, suspensions and revocations.
Jeff explains how the economics of a licensure defense case are often worse for the physician than a typical medical malpractice case, and thus implores physicians to make sure they have adequate insurance coverage for this type of risk.
He next describes a “sham peer review” and why doctors need to be wary of it and delves into the importance of the National Practitioner Data Bank. Jeff then covers disputes with hospitals and other employers and common mistakes physicians make as they exit.
The episode concludes with Jeff giving some words of advice about physicians working with attorneys.
