In its decision, the court noted that the decedent was only seen by physician assistants and allegedly without any supervision by the supervising physicians.
After a review of the matter, the court granted the Plaintiff’s Motion for Partial Summary Judgment on the issues of negligence per se for violations of the Medical Practice Act and regulations thereunder relating to the supervisions of physicians assistants.
While the court granted summary judgment on the issues of a duty of care and a breach thereof, the issue of causation was left for the jury’s decision.
