A victim of malpractice might be eligible for different forms of compensation. A claimant could pursue recovery for their quantifiable economic losses, such as for medical costs, therapy, and lost wages. A court might also award non-economic damages to compensate for their non-quantifiable losses, such as pain and suffering, but Colorado caps pain and suffering damages at $300,000. In addition, the total amount of damages that a court will award in a malpractice case in Colorado is generally $1,000,000.
