This is just one of the findings from Medscape’s 2018 Ethics Report, in which 5,200 physicians were asked ethical questions related to patients, romance, and money. When it comes to performing a procedure that could be medically unwarranted, 11% of physicians said they would do it out of fear of being sued by the patient for malpractice. |
