Its a bit worse than that, as I understand it.

It would have to be proven as medical malpractice, which would be much harder. It was a legal ploy to avoid any consequences.

Note that this is based on my layman understanding and other articles I've read on this, as well as comments from a few people in the medical industry I know (doctor, two nurses, and a friend in biotech).
