Last year the General Assembly enacted the medical malpractice reform bill which took effect on October 1, 2008. This week the Senate passed (SB 2109) which changes the notice and certificate of good faith provisions applicable to medical malpractice claims.
The House passed the bill earier in the session and all indications are that the governor will sign the legislation. John Day provides a nice summary of the amendments in Day on Torts.
