They Had Your Medicine. They Never Gave It.
Florida Hospital Failed to Provide Your Medication Get Justice Now
Your insulin sat in the pharmacy while your blood sugar skyrocketed. Your antibiotics collected dust as infection spread. Your heart medication remained undelivered as your pulse raced dangerously. You begged. They ignored you. Now you’re fighting complications that one simple pill would’ve prevented. This happens 700 times daily in Florida hospitals. It’s not oversight it’s negligence that violates Florida Statute 766.102.
From Percy Martinez, P.A.
“When a hospital fails to give you prescribed medication, it’s not just negligence; it’s a betrayal of sacred trust that can cost your life. I’ve seen too many families destroyed by something as preventable as a missed dose, and I won’t let them get away with it.”

Legal Definition Under Florida Medical Malpractice Law
Failure to provide medication means healthcare providers breached duty by not administering prescribed drugs or prescribing obviously necessary treatments. Florida courts recognize four types: complete omission, dangerous delays, failure to prescribe, and transfer errors. Missing insulin causes diabetic ketoacidosis within hours. Withheld antibiotics allow sepsis progression. Delayed anticoagulants trigger strokes. Each violates professional standards established in Gooding v. University Hospital.
Jacksonville to Miami: Death by Missed Doses
Dexter Barry: Two days without anti-rejection drugs. Heart failed. Dead at 54. Settlement: $300,000. Maria Rodriguez (Kendall): Twelve hours without insulin. Permanent brain damage. $1.2 million verdict. James Thompson (Tampa): Missed blood thinners. Massive stroke. $850,000 settlement. Each case proves the same pattern: prescribed medication existed, providers failed delivery, catastrophic harm followed.
Why 43% of Florida Medication Errors Are Omissions
Shift changes create deadly assumptions everyone thinks someone else administered doses. Electronic health records fail detecting 33% of missed medications. Florida’s nurse-to-patient ratios exceed safe limits by 40%. Pharmacy delays average 4.7 hours for critical drugs. These aren’t accidents they’re predictable outcomes of understaffing hospitals refuse to fix despite knowing the consequences.
Your Rights Florida Statutes 766.102-106
You’re entitled to economic damages (medical bills, lost wages) and non-economic damages (pain, suffering). Prove duty, breach, causation, damages. Two-year statute of limitations per Florida Statute 95.11(4)(b). Pre-suit requirements: medical expert affidavit confirming malpractice occurred. Comparative fault rules apply but rarely affect medication omission cases where provider negligence is absolute.
Evidence That Forces Seven Figure Settlements
Medication Administration Records (MARs) with blank entries prove negligence definitively. Pharmacy dispensing logs showing unfilled orders establish liability. Pyxis reports document automated dispensing failures. Expert testimony linking omission to injury satisfies causation requirements. Prior incident reports demonstrate pattern negligence supporting punitive damages under 768.72. Time-stamped requests in medical records contradict “patient never asked” defenses.
Damages Beyond Your Medical Bills
ICU stays from preventable complications: $8,000 to 15,000 daily. Lost earning capacity calculations for permanent disability: often exceeding $2 million. Future medical care life care plans: $500,000-3 million. Home modifications for medication-induced disabilities: $50,000-200,000. These damages compound missing heart medication causing stroke creates lifetime care needs averaging $1.8 million.
Insurance Companies’ Three Predictable Defense Strategies
First: “Harm would’ve occurred anyway” defeated by expert testimony proving direct causation. Second: “Patient contributed by not speaking up” Florida’s comparative negligence rarely applies when providers ignore documented orders. Third: “Damages are excessive” economic experts and life care planners justify every dollar. They’ll offer 20% of value hoping you’ll accept. Don’t.
