Description
Medical malpractice, perceived and actual, is among the most hotly debated issues in India today. Related litigation has been increasing every year, especially since the enforcement of the Consumer Protection Act (CPA), 1986. This book provides a comprehensive and in-depth survey of the law under the CPA, the law of torts, and the Penal Code. Addressing doctors, patients, and lawyers, it explains how the law operates in the country in the context of increasing rights consciousness among patients and doctor-patient conflict. Analysing major Indian cases, as also cases and law abroad, the book throws light on a wide range of issues including the duties, responsibilities, and rights of doctors; likely areas of litigation in medical specialities; consent of patients; and compensation. Additionally, the volume includes appendices on medical services and malpractice suits (with statistical information) and consumer disputes redressal agencies.
