If you have been injured at a military hospital or clinic, you may be able to file an FTCA claim against the U.S. Government. United States law allows victims of army medical malpractice or negligence potential recourse through the Federal Tort Claims Act. The Federal Tort Claims Act (FTCA) provides an administrative route that must be satisfied before filing a lawsuit. If you or someone you know was injured at a military or army hospital, you should contact a Federal Tort Claims Lawyer right away to learn about what options you may have.
FTCA medical malpractice claims have a different process than normal tort cases. Claimants must first exhaust all administrative remedies before filing a lawsuit. All claimants must first present their claim to the correct agency of the U.S. Government within the statute of limitations.

The FTCA has a specific, time-limited process that a potential claimant must follow. Failure to comply with the provisions of the FTCA can result in the loss of your right to receive compensation for your injuries.
The Standard Form 95 is used to present claims against the United States under the Federal Tort Claims Act (FTCA) for medical malpractice caused by a federal employee’s negligence or wrongful act or omission that occurred within the scope of the employee’s federal employment.
A common situation we face is when veterans or servicemembers complete and file their own Standard Form 95. This often can be a detrimental action for many cases due to errors made on Standard Form 95. We often have to either amend the Standard Form 95 or turn the case down entirely because of error.
The statute of limitations is a law that requires a claimant to file their claim within a certain time frame. The FTCA has a particular statute of limitations that must be complied with to effectively present your military medical malpractice claim to the government. Failure to satisfy the statute of limitations will bar you from recovering compensation for your injuries. Often we have to turn down cases because the veteran or active duty service member has waited too long to file a claim. This is why it is essential to talk to a medical malpractice lawyer right away.

One of the primary misconceptions that we’ve heard clients say many times is that they were told that they couldn’t sue the government or that they could not sue the Army, Navy, Air Force, or Department of Veterans Affairs because they were the federal government and that’s not true in all cases.
Oftentimes, people come to our law firm and think that there’s no possibility of them having a case against the federal government, and we’re able to make a recovery for them.
