Medico-Legal Tips

Practical medico-legal insights from Adv Dr Arun D. Mishra — helping doctors stay protected and informed

⚖️
Medico-Legal Tip
Court's View on Medical Negligence
01

The courts believe that a patient who has been injured by an act of medical negligence has suffered in a way which is recognised by the law. Therefore, you, as doctors, need to protect your profession and cover all liabilities through professional indemnity.

Medico-Legal Tip
3 Ingredients of Negligence
02

In consumer cases, negligence constitutes three ingredients. Medical negligence is not different — the doctor is a service provider to the patient.

  • Duty of Care — Doctor owes duty to take care of the patient
  • Breach of Duty — Doctor should not breach this duty of care
  • Resulting Injury — Complainant has to suffer injury due to this breach
