The med mal industry is driven by insurance companies not doctors. It is a proven unmitigated fact that tort reform lends itself to more profitable insurance companies and not to lower premiums.
New York does not have tort reform. California has the most aggressive tort reform (MICRA) in the nation.

When I left New York for California, my malpractice rates dropped 70% !!!

To suggest that malpractice rates are unaffected by tort reform is counterintuitive and not supported by the data.
