Wednesday, September 21, 2022 from 12:00 p.m. to 1:30 p.m., join CAP for a discussion on AB 35 and its impact on California physicians, presented through the 4th Annual Public Affairs Symposium.
On May 23, 2022 Assembly Bill 35 (AB 35) was signed into law by Governor Gavin Newsom. AB 35 significantly increases the caps on noneconomic damages and attorney’s fees in medical malpractice lawsuits, diminishing the important protections and limits provided by MICRA—the Medical Injury Compensation Reform Act of 1975.
AB 35 will pose significant challenges to the medical community for a variety of reasons as a surge in malpractice claims frequency and severity is expected after the law goes into effect on January 1, 2023.
CAP members are invited to participate in our 4th Annual Public Affairs Symposium where a panel of legislative experts and policy analysts will provide a behind-the scenes look at how AB 35 materialized, explore what the legislation means for your medical professional liability risk, and discuss what you can do to protect your practice.
The symposium is a free virtual event exclusive to CAP members. Registration details will be available soon.
