Medical malpractice occurs when healthcare providers injure their patient through an act of negligence or sometimes misdiagnoses when the test results are unclear or incorrect interpretation of the test results are absolutely grounds for medical negligence cases. A medical professional making a simple mistake would not be considered appropriate for a medical malpractice lawsuit—it has to be proven that the mistake could have been avoided and that it resulted in harm to the patient.
