Medical malpractice can 'hybrid ADR' be of use?

Article Abstract:

A unique hybrid theory combining alternative dispute resolution with litigation will effectively resolve many malpractice claims in certain situations involving HMOs. The arbitration process could determine the standard of liability to apply in court, and after the trial the arbitration process could sort through the potentially liable parties and fix the appropriate amount of liability. This allows for an HMO to be named as the only party in a malpractice suit, reducing the costs and resources needed in litigating multi-party claims.
