Vermont hospitals now have a new level of accountability when it comes to mistakes that injure patients.

I know I would object to paying the bill if the hospital amputated the wrong limb.  The hospitals have agreed not to collect money from patients, or their health insurance companies, if the hospital makes a serious mistake. The policy will cover eight errors that officials said are very rare but serious. They include surgery performed on a wrong body part or on the wrong patient, incorrect surgery, artificial insemination with the wrong donor or injury caused by a medication error.
