The topic of the segment was "Patient Safety: How To Protect Yourself From Medical Malpractice." In the segment, Rubenstein discussed practices of patient safety and how the legal system serves to protect us when someone is wronged or injured. Also discussed were parameters of attorney’s roles in patient safety and the harmful effects that “pain and suffering” damage caps have regarding children, the elderly and people who do not work outside the home. During the interview Rubenstein stressed, "Changes to medical malpractice laws to limit recoverable damages punish the patient and don’t help to reduce insurance premiums for the doctor."
"The Pennsylvania Trial Lawyers Association" was given as a pro-bono legal source for the patient.
Rubenstein is an attorney and advocate for victims of medical malpractice and has represented numerous high profile clients on this topic.
The 5-minute segment aired on CN8 Newsmakers during the month of November.
