Abstract
When medical errors have occurred, physicians at different levels of training face various pressures imposed by the culture and hierarchy of medicine, risk management, and malpractice liability systems. Despite these pressures, the preferred course of action, professionally and ethically, is to disclose mistakes to patients. Virtual Mentor is a monthly bioethics journal published by the American Medical Association.
