Abstract

Due to the cases that occur related to the practice of medicine, the law contributes in providing solutions for both physicians and patients as consumers of health, although medicine has a code of professional ethics as the basis of doctors in carrying out their work. This study focuses on, how judges assess the express consent on the implementation of informed consent and secondly, how the model of protection and fulfillment of patient rights in the implementation of informed consent in Indonesia. The research method used is normative legal research, based on health law and the health minister’s regulation as the main benchmark in analyzing. The results of the discussion illustrate that, the main point of doctors and health workers in carrying out their duties is the implementation of concrete agreements both written and oral. Second, the model for protecting patient rights in law enforcement is applying reverse evidence to doctors as defendants of malpractice in relation to the fulfillment of informed consent. From several cases, it appears that the judge’s decision is not fundamental to informed consent, but tends to the negligence aspect of the doctor or medical personnel use to Article 359 of the Criminal Code.
