Kaiser Arbitration Attorneys For Southern California
The Kaiser Foundation Health Plan is the largest provider of health services in California. Approximately, one in four insured Californians are covered through Kaiser. In an effort to contain costs, Kaiser requires plan participants to submit patient malpractice claims through the Kaiser medical malpractice arbitration process, rather than litigating through the court system.
If you are injured through the negligence of a Kaiser health care provider, you cannot sue Kaiser directly. Instead, you must submit a claim for injuries, which will be heard before a neutral arbitrator (an experienced former litigator or a retired judge). The neutral arbitrator acts as both the judge and the jury.
