Abstract

This study aims to examine how the juridical consequences of errors on the part of hospitals and doctors in handling health care for patients. As for the subject of this study is how the legal relationship between Hospitals, Doctors and Patients in the health treatment agreement, and the legal consequences of errors and omissions in health care. The research method used in this study is normative juridical using secondary legal data consisting of primary legal materials and secondary legal materials. Based on the results of the study, it is known that the legal relationship between the patient and the doctor is a “joint participation” relationship where the patient already feels equal to the doctor. Delay in treatment by a doctor is a form of default, namely being late in doing what was promised to be done. Hospitals can also be responsible in this case committing acts against the law, because they do not provide safe, quality, anti-discriminatory, and effective health services by prioritizing the interests of patients in accordance with hospital service standards, resulting in fatal outcomes for patients.
