I'm pretty sympathetic to anesthesiologists after another WSJ article I read a few years back.

According to that article, anesthesiologists used to have some of the highest malpractice premiums. Rather than lobbying for liability caps as some other physicians have been doing, they did a lot of analysis of their own data, and figured out how have a lot fewer patients die on them. Now they have some of the lowest malpractice premiums.
