Medical Negligence Claims in Sri Lanka
The book is a detailed study of the emergence, formulation, generation, processing and outcomes of medical negligence claims to show that these involve a lot of ambiguity. It examines the definition of medical negligence. Situated in the medical negligence claims landscape of Sri Lanka, it examines the subtlety of processes that generate legal cases in medical negligence, interests and motives of the actors involved, and capacity of institutions to channelise the medical negligence claims, among other aspects. Based on empirical findings from Sri Lanka and with comparative perspectives that involve the scenario in the West, it takes up questions like what happens to the complaints that are lodged and the way they are treated in courts, tribunals and ministerial offices.
