$45,000,000.00 representing the parents’ claims for medical expenses for their child until age 18 and for loss of services and the minor’s claims for future medical expenses, pain and suffering, and lost income. James Don Adams, Jr. and Lamona K. Adams, et al. v. Kaiser Foundation Health Plan of Georgia, Inc. State Court of Fulton County, C.A.F. 93VS79895 (1995).


The Jury found Kaiser Permanente guilty of medical negligence in managing the treatment of meningococcemia which led to the amputation of both his hands and his feet because of gangrene.  In it's early states, meningococcemia is certainly manageable and, when it is treated properly, gangrene can be prevented.  However, the jry decided that Kaiser's inflexible attitude of staying with its own restrictive treatment policies and procedures, and allowing a deviation from these policies only after a long battle by the plaintiff with the company's bureaucracy, was sufficient reason to award the boy $45.5 million on the grounds of medical negligence. - Source - "Managing Care - A Shared Responsibility"  The Concept of Managed Care and Its Practical Implications, pg 35 -
