Many times our veterans seek care from the Veteran Administration Medical
Centers. Those cases, people who get injured by doctors or nurses at a
veteran's facility, also have the right to pursue a medical malpractice
case.
It's different than a state case in that you have to file the case in
federal court, different statutes of limitations apply, some different
rules apply, and it's a particular sub-specialty of medical malpractice
that we do here.
Any claim against the Veteran's Administration falls under a set of rules
called the FTCA, the Federal Tort Claims Act, and those are the specific
sets of rules, that apply to any case against the US government, which
cases against the VA would fall under.
