The Massachusetts legislation requires a “182” (emphasis added, not 180 day) day notice. Requires any person seeking to sue for medical malpractice to give the health care provider at least 182 days written notice before the action is commenced. Also requires both parties (claimant and health care provider) to meet deadlines for responses, production of documents and time to consider settlements.
