Valor medio de la demanda por fórmulas infantiles NEC

According to a study published in 2015, the average cost associated with surgically treating NEC can range from $300,000 to $600,000. Surgery typically occurs to remove intestinal tissue that has died and to close up any perforations in the intestine. Of course, this is an initial surgery. If complications develop, additional surgeries could be required. Depending on the intestinal damage resulting from the NEC, long-term treatment might be required. Of course, this can create higher medical bills. In some cases, medical costs alone can reach the million-dollar mark.

In addition to medical bills, there are many other factors that could affect the value of a claim. Some other important factors to consider when trying to determine the value of a lawsuit include the following:

• Costs associated with traveling frequently to be able to get medical care
• Costs associated with having to relocate for accessibility to medical care
• Lost income resulting from being unable to work due to constant medical issues, surgeries, appointments, etc.
• The mental and emotional distress resulting from the diagnosis, treatment, follow-up care, etc.

These are just some of the details that could affect the value of a claim. An experienced lawyer can help you evaluate the specific details surrounding your situation and determine the potential value of your claim.

Some of the specific categories of compensation that you could be eligible to recover include the following:

• Medical costs – for all medical costs, including surgeries, medication, long-term care, follow-up care, etc.
• Lost earnings – typically associated with a parent having to stop working to provide full-time at-home care to the infant/child or the affected infant/child growing up to be unable to work because of medical issues as an adult, for example
• Pain and suffering – for the mental and emotional distress associated with the incident
• Loss of consortium – for the lost ability to have a normal relationship with the victim (typically only awarded in cases of wrongful death)
• Funeral and burial expenses – for the costs associated with these services (always reserved for cases of wrongful death)
• Punitive damages – awarded as a form of punishment towards the defendant, usually in cases of gross negligence
• Legal costs – for all costs associated with filing a lawsuit

Of course, the type and amount of compensation that you could ultimately receive will be strictly based on the details surrounding your case.
