A 2016 Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine study found medical errors in hospitals and other health care facilities are so commonplace that preventable deaths due to medical malpractice are the third leading cause of death in the United States. Their latest estimate found that approximately 251,000 lives are claimed each year because of medical error – about 9.5 percent of all deaths annually in the United States—higher than deaths caused by stroke, accidents or Alzheimer’s.
