Summary/Abstract: This article examines the economic and criminological aspects of medical malpractice in the Republic of Moldova. It assesses the structure of damages and their consequences for the healthcare system. The aim is to identify patterns of damage and propose measures to improve compensation and liability effectiveness. Methods employed include comparative legal and case analysis, economic and statistical modelling, and content analysis of regulatory, judicial and media sources. Results: direct and indirect losses are categorised, and the impact of regulatory gaps and institutional weaknesses on case outcomes is demonstrated. The novelty lies in the integration of economic and criminological approaches and the introduction of an 'economic-criminological index of medical risk'.
