North Carolina Senate Bill 332011
Caps on noneconomic damageSB 33 caps compensation for noneconomic damages at $500,000. “Noneconomic damages” refers to compensation for pain, suffering, personal loss, professional loss or anything else that cannot be defined monetarily.
Immunity for emergency personnelIn addition to the cap, SB 33 gave extra protection to emergency personnel by putting tougher standards to prove medical malpractice in an emergency situation. Plaintiffs must prove “gross negligence” when pursuing a malpractice case classified as an emergency. 23

NC House Bill 243 “STOP ACT” Initial Draft
Initial restriction of 3 day script for Opioids*Would have been exceedingly bothersome for MD’s*Subsequently changed to 5 day restriction for Acute
Pain*Post Op pain to 7 days
Required Queries of Controlled Substance Reporting System (CSRS) with each Narcotic prescription to check patients history
*Must document in EHR*Had to explain what limitations EHR’s have*Allow paper script to be used at times
Attorney General wanted to fine MD’s $250 for each instance *CSRS not queried*Changed language to reporting to NCMB—no fine
Initially a yearly fee of $50 per doc to keep CSRS going*Negotiated that down to $0
Written by Attorney General and his staff---Very Unfavorable to Doctors
