Psychotherapy Malpractice

Psychotherapy is the treatment of mental and emotional disorders using psychological methods. This form of treatment does not include physiological interventions, such as drug therapy or electrotherapy, although it may be used in combination with such methods. Psychotherapists, like all other medical practitioners, are required to treat their patients with a certain standard of care. If they fail, and if the patient is injured, they may be held financially responsible for those injuries.

Radiology Outsourcing

There is a serious shortage of radiologists in the United States. One trade journal recently reported there is an average of four vacancies per radiology department at American academic centers over the past two years. In response to the nationwide shortage and to the demand for more sophisticated scans to diagnose illnesses, physicians at many small American hospitals are relying on companies that outsource diagnosis tasks to offshore radiologists.
