A Further Discussion about Problems in the Draft of Medical Disputes and Medical Incident Compensation Law

中文摘要

關於醫療事故傷亡或醫療糾紛事件,臺灣現行之法律規範對於病人及家屬權益之保障仍有不周,而現行之司法制度對於醫事人員亦構成相當程度之訟累。目前已進入立法程序之「醫療糾紛處理及醫療事故補償法」草案,係一整合醫療糾紛處理程序、醫療事故傷亡補償及醫療疏失改錯學習之專法,其目的即為解決病人/家屬及醫事人員雙方面對當前醫療糾紛處理制度之困境。揆諸「醫療糾紛處理及醫療事故補償法」草案之主要內容,乃係以「調解前置」之訴訟外紛爭處理機制減少訟源;同時參考紐西蘭及瑞典等國所採之「不責難制度」,訂立具有本土色彩之「補償制度」,期能協助解決醫療糾紛。此一立法方向應值贊同與支持,但於糾紛協調、鑑定、補償及通報除錯等細節,仍須更完善之配套與規劃,方可望達成醫師團體所冀望之降低醫病進入訴訟之比例,以及病人希望了解真相之訴求。

英文摘要

As medical malpractice occurs, the rights of patients and their family members are not sufficiently safeguarded under the current legal system. The increasing number of litigations also gives enormous burden to medical personnel in the judiciary. The Medical Malpractice Draft is a special law which integrates the process of dealing with medical malpractice, no-fault compensation, and medical misconducts correction. The purpose of the Medical Malpractice Draft is to break through the obstacles of medical malpractice facing patients and health care workers. The main contents of the Medical Malpractice Draft is to reduce litigations by preliminary mediation which is a kind of alternative dispute resolution. Meanwhile, a “no-blame” compensation system similar to that in New Zealand and Sweden is also adopted in the Medical Malpractice Draft. In general, the enactment of the Medical Malpractice Draft is worthy of support. However, further refinement on the regulations concerning dispute coordination, expert testimony, compensation, as well as report and debug is warranted to meet the doctors’ expectation of reducing litigations and the patients’ expectation of discovering the truth.
