Description
Summary:Nowadays the rights of medical practitioners are not so widely developed as the rights of minor patients. Protection of the rights of medical practitioners is directly subject to implementation of the rights of minor patients. Interaction or legal cooperation of medical practitioners and minor patients has been studied rather little from the scientific perspective. Despite several aspects – introduction of new Internet era in relations of doctors and patients, establishment of judicial practice in the sphere of protection of the rights of patients, the institute of the protection of the rights of medical practitioners in Latvia has not been sufficiently developed yet. Main conditions of interaction of medical practitioners and minor patients are defined both in the Medical Treatment Law and the Law on the Rights of Patients. However, the main feature of these relations is that within such framework, medical practitioners mostly have prohibitions and restrictions, whereas minor patients mostly have their rights stipulated. The aim of the article is to define the characteristics of the rights of medical practitioners in treatment process of minor patients. Descriptive, analytical, systematic and grammatical methods were used in compiling of the article.
