A short excerpt from a YouTube video by Aaron Hartman, MD discussing estimates of deaths from hospital medical errors (citing figures like 400,000 and 150,000 per year) and calling for more research, open discussion among physicians, and structured reviews when patients die in hospital. The speaker emphasizes uncertainty in rankings but stresses the need for transparency and investigation.

You know, looking at hospitalizations with Medicare patients, one suggested that maybe 400,000 deaths a year occurs by error in the hospital. Another said maybe it's 150,000. So, you know, the question with it being the third most common, you know, is it the fifth or is it the second? I think the gist is we need to really research this and we need to be open to it. We need to start having some common panels when they're. When people die in the hospital, when physicians need to be free to discuss things.
