How patient harm is affecting India’s Surging Healthcare with medical negligence 29th April 2020. These matters are regulated by the Consumer Protection Act and the Indian Penal Code. The city of Solapur, being an urban health care destination, has related issues specifically in the matter of malpractice accountability.

Objective: The present study is therefore planned to assess the negligence pattern, liability, and judicial pronouncements in 80 medico-legal cases in Solapur. Through analysing reimbursement patterns and organizational protections, we hope to propose structures to protect health care providers from criminal sanctions.

Methods: A mixed research method was applied, including case law audit, semi-structured interviews, and survey analysis. Evidence from litigation,  expert opinion, and patient experience was reviewed. Thematic and statistical methods (SPSS) assisted in quantifying negligence patterns and juridical outcomes.

Results: According to the results, the most common types of negligence (31.25%) are surgical mistakes, followed by misdiagnosis (25%). The private sector (75%) is sued more as compared to government hospitals. 62.5% of cases were awarded compensation (mean compensation: INR 12 lakh), underlining financial relief being the foremost cure.
