I actually don't think limiting the amount you can sue somebody for is the answer. I was aiming more for the what they talk about in the quote below, that it will help reduce the number of things done because the doctors are scared of getting sued. I guess I'm just going on the things my Doctor sister-in-law tells me.

Advocates or opponents cite other possible effects of limiting tort liability, such as reducing the extent to which physicians practice "defensive medicine" by conducting excessive procedures; preventing widespread problems of access to health care; or conversely, increasing medical injuries. However, evidence for those other effects is weak or inconclusive.
