Özet:

 

Objective:  It was recently debated in the media thatfiling names of hospitals and physicians involved inmedical malpractice suits on the Internet  may createincentives for hospitals and physicians to improve theirquality of care. Also, with improved quality of care, itmay curb the need for expensive litigations.Method: Different arguments pertinent to such a deci-sion, in terms of effectiveness, efficacy, efficiency, andpracticability, are considered.Results and conclusions:  The litigation system hasbeen documently more adequate to determine injurythan negligence, and so, making malpractice data andthe names of those involved available on the Internetis a hazardous plan. In terms of effectiveness, efficacy,efficiency, and practicability, there are too manycounter-arguments to warrant implementing this plan.Key words:  Malpractice, litigations, negligence, injury,internet.
