Abstrakt

The individual rights in the health care sphere are ensured, among other things, by overcoming uncertainty in legal regulation. The problem of ambiguity, filling gaps, contradictory to legal regulation is of relevance in the court hearings of specific cases in the health care sphere. The health care sphere is one of the most important spheres of the legal protection of individual’s rights, because it concerns all the population. In modern medical law, the standardized approach to the regulation of relations in the health care sphere has received widespread recognition. The notions “standard” and “order” are widely applied to the regulation of medical activity and patients’ rights. In the health care sphere the ambiguity of legal regulation is connected with requirements of getting from patient informed consent to treatment. The informed consent must be given by the patient voluntarily and before the medical treatment.
