Malingering behavior in private medical practice.
Malingering behavior presents a tremendous and unfair burden on our nation's health care system. Physicians must be prepared to identify and diplomatically discourage such abuse whenever possible. Failure to do so could jeopardize the economy of the entire health care system and will prevent good care from reaching those in most need of it at affordable rates.
