Legal Question in Medical Malpractice in Florida
My dad lives in Florida and has disability paperwork completed every so often. His neurologist just called and said they charge $300 to complete this paperwork which they previously did not charge saying it was an oversight on their part prior. I have heard of $25-$50 charges for paperwork to be completed but $300? My dad has no choice at this point as his paperwork is due and he does not have time to find another dr. but I wanted to know for the future if there is any laws about this.

There is no law limiting what a physician can charge. It is not malpractice no matter what.
