80.997 Use of Expert Testimony:
MSSNY continues to advocate for meaningful reform regarding the use of expert testimony, including but not limited to: (1) requiring pre-trial disclosure of the identity of experts; (2) requiring the deposing of experts; (3) requirements that experts have a similar specialty, clinical background, and be in active practice similar to that of the physician whose care is the subject of the action; or (4) through the establishment of programs where expert testimony can be pre-approved by appropriate medical experts.
