Liability Risk and Insurance
Largest number of claims brought under CNST from orthopaedic surgery
Orthopaedic surgery, not surprisingly, results in the largest number of claims brought under the Clinical Negligence Scheme
for Trusts (CNST), with around 10,000 having been notified to the NHS Litigation Authority (NHSLA) since 1995, according to
the NHSLA in a claims focus on orthopaedic surgery.
