last-treatment rule

A quick definition of last-treatment rule:

Last-Treatment Rule: This is a rule that says if a doctor has been treating a patient for a while and the treatment stops or the relationship ends, the patient has a limited amount of time to file a medical malpractice claim. This means that if something went wrong during the treatment, the patient needs to file a claim before the time limit runs out.

A more thorough explanation:

The last-treatment rule is a legal principle that determines when the statute of limitations begins for a medical malpractice claim. It states that the clock starts ticking when the treatment ends or the physician-patient relationship is terminated.

For example, if a patient undergoes surgery and experiences complications, the statute of limitations for a malpractice claim would begin when the treatment ends, which could be when the patient is discharged from the hospital or when the surgeon's follow-up care ends.

Another example would be if a patient sees a doctor for ongoing treatment of a chronic condition. If the patient decides to switch doctors or stop treatment, the statute of limitations would begin at that point.

The last-treatment rule is important because it sets a time limit for patients to file a medical malpractice claim. If the claim is not filed within the statute of limitations, the patient may lose the right to seek compensation for any harm caused by the medical provider's negligence.

@BulbasaurNoLikeCardio: they blaimed it on their IT team for not updating it as out of stock when I paid but like buying something in stock in September then being told I won't get it until mid January is pretty wild. I do not hunt anymore but their mistake would of caused me to miss the entire season. If it wasn't so hard to get left handed ARs I would of gone elsewhere
oh that's kind of worth more than $140
that's at least $300
