- Do I question the care that I received or the competency of the doctor?
- Do I suspect that proper medical treatment was delayed due to the failure to properly diagnose the condition?
- Was an improper procedure performed on me that resulted in a serious injury or condition?
- Have I or members of my family suffered injury that may have resulted from the care of a doctor, hospital or other health care provider?
- Do I have concerns that a medical device may have seriously affected my health?
- Has it come to my attention, perhaps after speaking with another doctor or other health care professional, that the treatment I received was inappropriate or that the outcome was unusual?
- Has my insurance company raised question about the care I received, the appropriateness of specific procedures, tests I have taken or the diagnosis I was given?
- Do I have concerns that a medical procedure, the administration of anesthesia, the quality of care received or the prescription of certain drugs may have adversely affected my health?
