Legal Question in Medical Malpractice in Illinois

My husband had a colonoscopy done and the doctor removed a suspicious polyp. When my husband called to get the results of the biopsy he was informed that it was not done because the polyp was dropped on the floor. Is he able to sue for malpractice? Are we financially responsible for the bill?
