Health care providers in California have faced increasing medical malpractice claims since the mid-twentieth century. When medical malpractice insurance rates escalated in the 1960’s and early 1970’s, California enacted the Medical Injury Compensation Reform Act of 1975. In spite of the law putting a CAP on general damages, medical malpractice claims continue to be filed whether they have merit or not.
