If this report doesn’t scare I don’t know what will. Three separate studies reveal that 12 million Americans are misdiagnosed each year. That’s more than 5% of all patients according to a study published in BMJ Quality and Safety, The International Journal of Healthcare Improvement.
Researchers from Houston Veterans Affairs Medical Center and Baylor College of Medicine calculated these numbers of misdiagnoses that are the result of doctors failing to follow up on “red flags” for cancer and other serious illnesses.
The number of medical misdiagnoses that result in death or increased health problems is the reason we created USARAD.com. We make it easy and affordable for everyone in the world to get a second opinion.
