An Act relative to the tracking of medical malpractice cases

This bill directs the administrator of the trial court in Massachusetts to create a system for tracking and categorizing civil lawsuits involving medical malpractice, errors, or mistakes against healthcare providers. Once established, the administrator must submit annual reports by December 31 detailing the number of such cases to the clerks of the House and Senate and the joint committee on the judiciary. The legislation aims to improve data collection on medical negligence claims without changing how these cases are adjudicated or affecting the rights of patients or providers.
