(Iowa City, IA) -- A women's healthcare clinic in eastern Iowa is filing for bankruptcy after failing to pay 12 million dollars in a malpractice case.
Two Iowa City parents sued Mercy Hospital and OB GYN Associates earlier this year after their baby suffered brain damage during birth in 2018.
A jury awarded the Kromphardt family nearly 100 million dollars in damages in March, with OB GYN Associates' insurance company ordered to pay 12 million dollars on their policy.
The clinic is now filing for bankruptcy.
The Kromphardt's have not been paid anything from the company.
The parents are requesting a hearing to find out why.
