It is almost certain that physicians and providers will be involved in a lawsuit at some point in their careers, which may tempt some to practice defensive medicine.

Good and bad practices and behaviors of the entire healthcare team will be explored.
Learning Objectives

- Develop protective practices to reduce risk.
- Recognize how applying jury science can correlate to better patient care.
