I thought these links would be of interest to anyone in UK who thinks they've been harmed by delayed or inadequate treatment.

Harmed Patients Alliance (HPA)

AvMA and HPA are collaborating on developing a Harmed Patient Pathway

I think AvMA 's definition of medical accidents include those who've been affected by delayed or inadequate treatment.
