According to The Medical Malpractice Myth, by Tom Baker, Director of the Insurance Law Center at University of Connecticut, his book provides research to dispute these claims with facts. The book provides research proving the following:
- Medical malpractice is an epidemic that causes thousands of deaths a year
- Medical malpractice suits are rare, and are very rarely frivolous
- Malpractice insurance premiums aren't impossibly high
- Rising insurance costs are not closely related to litigation
- Doctors are not leaving their practices
