Bob M DeWeese on March 3, 2008, to submit to the voters an amendment to the Constitution of Kentucky that would allow the General Assembly to create statutory provisions relating to medical malpractice, including provisions for alternative dispute resolution, statutes of limitation or repose, peer review, expert witnesses, certificates or merit, and collateral source payments.
