Healthcare costs are increasing in Florida, with unreasonably high medical malpractice claims contributing to the problem. That’s why Governor DeSantis recently vetoed harmful legislation (HB 6017) that would have made things even worse by drastically expanding survivor eligibility in medical malpractice actions.
Now, however, lawmakers in Tallahassee are considering overriding the Governor’s veto and passing this misguided bill into law. If that happens, it could lead to higher medical and insurance costs for all Floridians.
Help us call on state lawmakers to respect and not override the Governor’s veto in order to protect consumers and the stability of Florida’s insurance market. Please review and send your message today.
