PATIENT LIABILITY AND LIABILITY FOR BREACH OF PATIENT RIGHTS

Summary/Abstract: In this paper the author considers the question of patient liability and liability for breach of patient rights in the process of being served with proper health care. Rights, duties and liability of the patient in terms of health care has been an open issue in our legal science. Introducing the right of patient into national legislations is conditioned by the need for more elaborate and comprehenstive understanding of legal aspects of patient liability and liability for breach of patient rights. Duties and liability of the patient include: liability of the patient for personal health, liability of the patient toward health care workers and associates and liability of the patient toward civil society. Liability for breach of patient rights has been analysed through different forms of liability: disciplinary, strict, civil and criminal. Without liability there is no legal state. This study has been undertaken in order to improve a legal framework for their regulation de lege ferenda in compliance with the legal system, international documents and case law of neighbouring states.
