Description

ERWIN, Justice. OPINION The court is required to determine in these petitions whether, and to what extent, the physician-patient evidentiary privilege is waived by virtue of the patient filing a personal injury lawsuit. 1 Because the privilege in issue has been subject to diverse interpretations not only in Alaska's courts, 2 but in the United States District Court for the District of Alaska 3 as well, we feel compelled to review the cases at this time. 4 In the matter brought by petitioner Vervick, the parties jointly contend a vehicular accident took place on the 10th of December, 1975, between a truck driven by Carol Vervick and an Anchorage maintenance truck. As a result of this accident Mrs. Vervick sought and obtained medical treatment. Later, suit was filed in the nature of a personal injury action, naming Carol Vervick and her husband, Larry Vervick, as plaintiffs, and the Municipality of Anchorage as party defendant. As the litigation proceeded a motion was filed by Anchorage to waive the physician-patient privilege; and on the 16th of June, 1976, this motion was granted by Superior Court Judge Victor D. Carlson. It is order granting this motion which forms the subject of the Vervick petition.
