Many malpractice claims may sometimes involve a claim that medical staff committed a diagnostic error, which may occur if:
- You were diagnosed with a condition that you did not have;
- You were not diagnosed with a medical condition even though your symptoms were consistent with that medical condition; or
- You were not diagnosed with the medical condition until after it already reached an incurable or untreatable stage. This delay in diagnosing the condition was the fault of the medical staff.
