    Author: Barrett RA, O'Neill CR.
    Journal: J Am Med Rec Assoc; 1988 May; 59(5):40-2. PubMed ID: 10287423.
    Abstract:
    This article examines one of the newer theories of liability which courts are using to hold hospitals liable for the negligence of their physicians. The authors suggest possible ways in which a hospital, including its medical record department, can attempt to avoid, or at least minimize, this liability risk.
