The government could be sued for medical malpractice that allegedly resulted in the death of a mentally retarded adult, even if the plaintiff filed her survival claim outside the Federal Tort Claims Act's two-year statute of limitations, the 3rd Circuit has ruled in reversing a dismissal.
The plaintiff's brother lived in a federally funded health care facility. He died at the age of 64 after succumbing to a continuous fever for which a cause was never diagnosed. The plaintiff brought a survival claim under the FTCA within two years of her brother's death, alleging that he died because his doctors administered a combination of psychiatric drugs to the point of toxicity, and then failed to diagnose the extent of the toxicity before it became irreversible and terminal.
