University of Iowa Health Care settles negligence lawsuit after mistrial

IOWA CITY — University of Iowa Health Care has agreed to pay $750,000 to a man with Stage 4 lung cancer who sued MercyOne and UIHC for missing a mass in his chest and allowing his cancer to go untreated for more than a year. Brian Walker, 67, of Des Moines, was first admitted to the trauma unit at Mercy Medical Center in Des Moines on June 26, 2020, with second- and third-degree burns on more than 18% of his body — including his back, neck, shoulder, abdomen and arms — from an incident with an outdoor fire pit, according to his 2023 lawsuit. While at Mercy, Walker had a chest X-ray — due to the trauma — revealing a 3.5-centimeter soft-tissue mass in his right lung. But when he was transferred to the UIHC burn center later that evening, there was “no record suggesting that any member of Brian’s care team communicated the findings of (his) X-ray report or shared the imaging with the Iowa City Burn Center,” the lawsuit stated. Several days later, Walker was discharged without having any additional X-rays. About 15 months later, on Oct. 11, 2021, Walker went to the UnityPoint emergency room in Des
