In Arizona, medical malpractice claims are governed by statute. Nunsuch ex rel. Nunsuch v. United States, 221 F.Supp. 2d 1027, 1032 (D.Ariz. 2001). A medical malpractice action is one "for injury or death against a licensed health care provider based upon such provider's alleged negligence, misconduct, errors or omissions, or breach of contract in the rendering of health care, medical services . . . or other health-related services, without express or implied consent." A.R.S. 12-561(2) (2003). Medical malpractice actions can be brought against a health care provider only on the grounds listed in A.R.S. 12-561. A.R.S. 12-562(A). They cannot be based upon assault and battery. A.R.S. 12-562(B). The medical malpractice act provides a supplement to other civil remedies. Estate of McGill ex rel. McGill v. Albrecht, 203 Ariz. 525, 531, P 22, 57 P.3d 384, 390 (2002).
