英国最高法院裁定,儿童可以就因医疗疏忽而损失的年数要求赔偿,使付款与成年人相一致。 UK Supreme Court rules children can claim compensation for lost years due to medical negligence, aligning payouts with adults.

英国最高法院裁定,由于医疗疏忽,儿童可以要求获得“损失年数”的赔偿,推翻1981年排除他们的先例。 The UK Supreme Court has ruled children can claim compensation for "lost years" due to medical negligence, overturning a 1981 precedent that excluded them. 该决定是根据涉及一名11岁女孩的案件作出的,该女孩因出生并发症而脑损伤严重,允许损害反映整个工作生活,包括收入损失和养老金福利。 The decision, based on a case involving an 11-year-old girl with severe brain damage from birth complications, allows damages to reflect a full working life, including lost earnings and pension benefits. 这项裁决确保儿童获得与成年人同等的补偿,有可能大大增加支付额。 The ruling ensures children receive compensation on par with adults, potentially increasing payouts significantly. 这一变化可能导致国家保健服务的付款增加,对保健供资和服务产生财务影响。 The change may lead to higher NHS payouts, with financial implications for healthcare funding and services. 现在案件被退回高等法院重新评估损失。 The case is now returned to the High Court to reassess damages.
