you were injured while in a City-owned, municipal hospital. Not just any hospital in New York City ... an urban hospital. It is extremely important to find out how much time you have a claim against the hospital, and how much time you have a complaint. If you do not file in a timely fashion, you'll likely never be able to make a claim for your injuries.
First, here are a list of local hospitals in New York City:
Bellevue Hospital Center
Coler-Goldwater Specialty Hospital and Nursing Facility Franklin D. Roosevelt Iceland
Gouverneur Healthcare Services
Harlem Hospital Center
Metropolitan Hospital Center
Renaissance Health Care Network Diagnostic & Treatment Center
Jacobi Medical Center
Lincoln Medical and Mental Health Center
Morrisania Diagnostic & Treatment Center
North Central Bronx Hospital
Segundo Ruiz Belvis Diagnostic & Treatment Center
Coney Hospital Iceland
Cumberland Diagnostic & Treatment Center
East New York Diagnostic & Treatment Center
Kings County Hospital Center
Dr. Susan Smith McKinney Nursing and Rehabilitation Center
Woodhull Medical and Mental Health Center
Elmhurst Hospital Center
Queens Hospital Center
In general, you have only 90 days from the date of the irregularity, a claim against the New York City Health and Hospitals Corporation (the company that the company technically owns and is responsible for these local health care facilities).
If for any reason you have the time for action, there are a few exceptions that you can claim your late. But to do this, your lawyer will be asked a court for special permission to file late, and there are certain legal reasons why your case could be accepted, even if it is late, and many reasons why it will not be accepted.
The important point to remember is that if you even suspect that something is wrong at a local hospital in the city of New York (that is, within the 5 boroughs, New York, Brooklyn, Queens, Staten Iceland and the Bronx), you need to contact an experienced attorney immediately medical malpractice in relation to the protection of your rights to claim, and then an action.
In New York State, you must receive a claim that is time, before you ever a dispute. This requirement applies only to cases against a municipal hospital and a state hospital. This does not apply to a private hospital. This is known as a "precondition." Your request must be made first, and then you have a limited time in which to start the process.
Normally you have only one year and 90 days from the date of the irregularity, the inside and start your lawsuit against the New York City Health and Hospitals Corporation. There are very few exceptions to this rule.
** This is important! ** Even if this information is accurate as of the date of this writing (November 26, 2007), you'll need an experienced New York medical liability lawyer, to confirm that it is still exactly the time you believe that You have a right.
What is important is that you can not wait years for a claim or an action against one of the above hospitals. You must act immediately. As always, talk to a qualified lawyer dealing with cases similar to you, before making a decision on the complaint and the time to make a complaint. As an informed consumer, you will see a better customer and help you to understand how the legal system works.
