OVERVIEW: This webinar will explore CNA's database of nurse practitioner closed professional liability claims to identify liability patterns and trends. By highlighting closed nurse practitioner events that resulted in financial loss or expenses, we highlight the types of situations most likely to have serious adverse consequents for patients and create liability exposures for nurse practitioners. Using this information, nurse practitioners can examine their own current practices in relation to the allegations of malpractice in relation to claims and losses experienced by their peers. Selected claims asserted against nurses will be discussed.
OBJECTIVES:
• List the leading allegations made against nurse practitioners in malpractice lawsuits. • Define the average cost to defend and the indemnity for nurse practitioners in malpractice lawsuits. • Identify key risk management tools that nurse practitioners can incorporate into their practice.
