A bill in Virginia may help to raise medical malpractice awards in the state. Lawyers and doctors have reportedly worked out a compromise that would raise the awards by $50,000 each year. Apparently, they had to work out an agreement before legislators were brought in to make a decision. This also affects the caps that have been put on medical malpractice, but that have been changing in recent years.
