4. What The Wikipedia Page On Medical Malpractice Says

It seems as Bruning, Stenberg and Fischer are chasing after a problem that is self-correcting. My guess is that 2009 is the last year for which data is available.

"(T)ort costs as a percentage of GDP dropped between 2001 and 2009, and are now at their lowest level since 1984"


If these 3 are wrong about this, one has to wonder about their other points. I recall discussions during the ACA debate on those other points but don't recall the outcome. Using old, outdated talking points is a ploy long used by politicans, particularly Republicans.
