Why do you call restricting the rights of injured patients "reform"? The principle of tort law has always been that a person injured by the negligence of another should be compensated for his or her injuries. Because doctors are committing a lot of malpractice does not mean that people injured by doctors' negligence ought to have their right to be compensated restricted. That is not "reform".
It might surprise you to know that New Jersey has the 7th highest number of doctors in patient care per capita of the 50 states. The national average is 25.3 doctors in patient care per 10,000 people. New Jersey has 30.1. New Jersey is way ahead of the curve in that respect.
