After seen in the ER, the patient did not follow physician instructions. He was seen and treated by his PCP who prescribed other medications and was ultimately diagnosed with a septic joint of the left toe nine days later. His attorney alleged a failure to diagnose same. Although expert review was supportive because the medical lien was in excess of $100,000 this case was settled as a business decision and without an admission of liability in order to avoid protracted litigation and potential excess exposure to this practitioner. This physician was not involved in the decision to settle this case.
