I actually think that plan will make matters worse. It will encourage docs to keep more cash on hand than they do now so they can afford it if they get sued. A doc I was in Afghanistan had 50M worth of coverage, and He told me others hat kept as mush as 250M.

What needs to happen is tighter restrictions on what you can sue for. Even as far as saying that if you sue and lose, you pay for the defense.
