What costs are DePuy and Johnson & Johnson covering under the recall?
Johnson & Johnson has issued a recall for its line of DePuy ASR XL Acetabular System hip implants. Under the recall, the company has set aside approximately $280 million to give to patients affected by the recall. This money is intended to cover affected patients’ medical expenses for revision surgeries and replacement hip implants. However, this settlement does not include money for patients’ pain and suffering, lost income from time off of work, or other costs incurred by the victims of defective hip implants.
Patients who have been harmed by defective DePuy hip implant systems deserve far more compensation for their hardship than what they are being offered.
