INFORMED CONSENT DALAM PELAYANAN KESEHATAN
Abstract: It is
a must to
apply the informed
consent in public
health service, particularly in
a hosptal. As
a matter of
fact, some medical patients or the
representative does not
comprehend the term informed
consent due to
the ineffective communication
between the patient and physician.
Whereas, a doctor should
have a legal
informed consent to
execute medical action from
the patient, otherwise
she/he would experience a
question of law; private and punitive law as well as indisciplinary punishment.
A petient is
able to deny
an informed consent, yet
it is identified
as an informed
refusal. However, the patient
must be responsible
for any medical impacts in
the future. In
this case, a
doctor is free
from any legal actions as the
result of consent refusal of patient.
