Recoverable Damages in a South Carolina Medical Malpractice Claim
There are two primary types of damages to consider when filing a claim for malpractice: economic damages and non-economic damages.
ECONOMIC DAMAGES
The first is relatively easy to establish. It consists of your medical bills for the following:
- Emergency treatment
- Hospitalization
- Surgery
- Rehabilitative care
- Medication
- Equipment
It also includes any income you have lost during your recovery, as well as reduced earning power if you are now disabled. It may require considerable research and tabulation, but placing a price tag on economic damages is a relatively straightforward proposition.
NON-ECONOMIC DAMAGES
As we build a case to pursue just compensation, an assessment of the intangible losses you have experienced will need to be made.
These can include:
- Pain
- Suffering
- Mental anguish
- Loss of companionship
- Loss of ability to enjoy life
