it's around 1% per hospital. but those suits cost the hospital itselft millions of dollars. Driving up the cost of malpractice insurance which is then passed on to patients in the form of over testing, which in turn the insurance companies often deny because they are unneccessary. Again there is no easy answer or quick fix that I can see. Lots of people can have opinions on the best course to take but I seriously doubt any one person, even experts in the are, have any clue how to fix the problem without bankrupting the country
