SOME OF THE PRINCIPLES OF MEDICAL LAW

Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to analyse some of the principles of medical law that ensure an efficient health system and contribute to timely treatment, early detection of diseases, preservation of patients' health, etc. National legislation provides constitutional principles and guarantees for human health protection. Thus, the Constitution of the Republic of Kosovo, Article 26, paragraphs 3 & 4, states that every person has the right to respect for his/her physical and psychological integrity, which includes the right not to be subjected to medical treatment against his/her will in accordance with the law and the right not to participate in medical or scientific experiments without his/her prior consent. Article 51, paragraphs 1 and 2, states that healthcare and social insurance are regulated by law. Basic social insurance, which pertains to unemployment, illness, disability, and old age, is also governed by legal provisions. According to Article 3, paragraphs 1 and 2, of the Law on Health Protection of the Republic of North Macedonia, everyone has the right to health protection and the obligation to take care of preserving and promoting health in accordance with the law, and no one dares to endanger the health of others. Healthcare is provided by health professionals in allied health fields. Physicians and medical associates are a part of these health professionals.
