In short
The question of which heads there are in malpractice damages is that treatment, earnings, capacity for work, and non-pecuniary harm are asked for separately. In bodily harm, treatment expense, loss of earnings, a reduction of the capacity to work, and the shaking of the economic future stand apart. Non-pecuniary damages stand beside these. They do not stand in for them. In death, loss of support is different from the injured person's own heads. An amount, a percentage, and a statistic are not in this note.
A minimum non-pecuniary amount heard on social media is not written so that it itself passes into the petition. Each head carries its own document. If there is no document, the head is not widened. A figure is not built without the record and an expert.
Four headings of bodily harm
In the case of bodily harm, four heads in particular are spoken of. Treatment expense is shown with invoices tied to the act, such as a further operation, medicine, care, a prosthesis, and travel. Loss of earnings is the income of the period that could not be worked because of the event. It is shown with a workplace record or a return. A reduction or loss of the capacity to work is a lasting loss of function. A one-off report does not itself turn the loss into money. The shaking of the economic future is a change of occupation or a narrowing of the earnings expected later. If these four are written as copies of one another, the overlapping request is sorted out. A rate is not in this note.
The general concept of damages sits under pecuniary and non-pecuniary damages. This note separates which document sticks to which head in a malpractice petition. The invoice is the document of one head. Treatment that the illness already required may not be counted as an extra expense. Causation is separate from the pile of invoices. A contract can show private health insurance. The contract does not set up the amount of the head. The decision should write which head was accepted. While there is no decision, the heads are not treated as having joined.
What non-pecuniary damages meet
Non-pecuniary damages can be asked for pain, the disruption of the order of life, and the injury to bodily integrity. The amount is discretionary. Lists that circulate as a market figure are not a judgment. Intensive care, a repeated operation, a lasting mark, or the loss of an occupation enters the account of the non-pecuniary harm. The account should not conflict with the medical record. That a criminal action was brought is not a coefficient that increases the non-pecuniary damages. The split of the two routes sits under crime and damages.
The minutes can carry a statement that tells the change in the patient's life. The minutes are not themselves the amount. The petition should write the pecuniary head and the non-pecuniary head apart. A single line is not treated as having buried the non-pecuniary inside the pecuniary. The document should show that the lasting mark or the care continues. If there is no document, severity is not assumed. The non-pecuniary head is not built by adding a percentage.
Two separate claimants in death
The deceased's own harm, such as treatment and burial, can remain with the heirs. A spouse, a child, or persons the deceased supported can separately ask for loss of support and for their own non-pecuniary harm. Support is the care that was actually provided. A surname is not, on its own, proof of support. The general calculation of these heads sits under loss of support. The extra question in malpractice is this: is the death tied to the medical departure, or is it the course of the illness. That question sits under medical malpractice.
The register can show the record of heirship. The register does not write that the support was actually provided. Service separates, from the annotation, whether the death certificate entered the file. If there is no annotation, the date of death is not treated as completed. The application should separate the deceased's own harm from the own harm of the person who asks for support. The two claimants are not melted into the same sentence.
What is not asked for
Debts from before the diagnosis of the illness, unrelated to the act, are not a head. Asking the insurer for the part that exceeds the insurance cover does not treat the exceeding part as absent. The exceeding part is directed at the person responsible. The cover sits under compulsory insurance. A limit figure is not in this note. Contributory fault, or the patient's refusal of treatment, can be discussed on the file. This discussion is not a ready formula that erases the head. A pile of invoices is not collected before causation is set up.
Where the head is read from
The invoice and the medical record stand side by side. An amount, a percentage, and a statistic are not written. Non-pecuniary damages are not put in place of the pecuniary head. An insurance limit is not written into this note as a figure.
The office in Çankaya does not choose the authority the file will go to.
Conclusion
The question of which heads there are in malpractice damages is answered with treatment, earnings, capacity for work, the economic future, non-pecuniary harm, and, in death, support. Each head carries its own document. An amount, a percentage, and a statistic are not written. The frame sits on the health law page. The basis is the Turkish Code of Obligations.
