Abstract
|
|
|
Doctors and patients for the purpose of healing and treatment of disease through the contract will make a relationship. Doctors perform the medical practice for the state and illness of patient. Given that the patient did not cooperate in the doctor¡¯s medical practice, it is difficult to achieve the goal of disease healing. If the patient don¡¯t cooperate the medical care, and it is linked with a doctor¡¯s medical malpractice, patient¡¯s violation of obligation in medical cooperation is considered with negligence on the part of patients. However, this negligence should be limited to obvious cases that the patient¡¯s behavior is unreasonable although the doctor provides medical information to patients and induced the patient¡¯s response. Also, patient¡¯s violation of obligation in medical cooperation must result in adjusting the indemnification via a setoff of fault except the cases having causal relationship between doctor¡¯s fault and malpractice.
