DELRAY BEACH, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Aug. 3, 2004--With exorbitant malpractice insurance premiums a national concern and crippling the medical profession, one doctor is bringing the issues to the forefront with a unique entertainment act that features music and humor. Dr. Sam Bierstock, a physician and professional entertainer, has formed Dr. Sam and The Frivolous Action Blues Band and released a CD titled "Goin' Bare," a term describing the risky act of practicing without malpractice insurance by physicians who can no longer afford the premiums.

The satirical songs focus on needed reforms with tunes such as "They've Got Deep Pockets - Let's Sue," "The Jury Consultant's Blues," "Fine Print," and parodies such as "When You Wish to Sue a Star," "Back Spasm Woman," and "A Ploy Named Countersue." The CD is available at http://www.managedmusic.com.

"Lawyers are benefiting disproportionately in the current system, which is why attorney fees should be capped."
