Abstract

The field of medical aesthetics has experienced rapid growth in recent years, in line with the increasing public awareness of the importance of appearance, skin care, and technological advancements in aesthetic medicine. However, behind this progress lie several legal issues that require serious attention, including unauthorized medical practice, alleged malpractice, and the inadequate legal protection afforded to both patients and medical practitioners. This study aims to examine the forms of legal protection available to doctors and patients in the practice of medical aesthetic services, with reference to Law Number 17 of 2023 on Health and Law Number 8 of 1999 on Consumer Protection. The research employs a normative juridical (doctrinal) method using a statute approach and a conceptual approach. The analysis is carried out qualitatively by examining primary, secondary, and tertiary legal materials. These two legal instruments serve as the primary foundation for ensuring legal protection for both parties; however, their implementation still requires derivative regulations and clearer enforcement mechanisms to strengthen their effectiveness. The government, the Professional Discipline Council, and the public are expected to play an active role in establishing an aesthetic medical service system that is safe, ethical, and equitable. Reforms to Indonesia’s health law framework should be directed toward an integrative and humanistic model of legal protection—one that not only safeguards medical practitioners from potential criminalization but also ensures patient safety and the protection of patients’ rights as consumers of aesthetic medical services. This study is expected to provide new perspectives and contribute to the growing body of literature in the field of health law in Indonesia.

Abstract

Surgical procedures in children with tumors constitute high-risk medical services that have the potential to give rise to medical disputes. Within the framework of health law, hospitals function not only as healthcare providers but also as legal entities responsible for service quality, patient safety, and the resolution of medical disputes. This study aims to analyze the legal responsibilities and roles of hospitals in resolving medical disputes arising from pediatric surgical procedures in children with tumors, based on Minister of Health Regulation Number 24 of 2022, Law Number 17 of 2023 on Health, and Government Regulation Number 28 of 2024. The research employs normative and empirical juridical approaches, supported by field studies conducted at H. Adam Malik General Hospital, Medan. The findings indicate that hospital legal responsibility is comprehensive, encompassing the actions of medical personnel, healthcare service systems, compliance with patient safety standards, and medical record documentation. Hospitals also play a strategic role in resolving medical disputes through non-litigation mechanisms, particularly internal mediation and patient complaint systems, in order to provide legal protection and prevent the escalation of disputes.

Abstract

Penanganan persalinan dengan komplikasi merupakan salah satu aspek krusial dalam praktik kebidanan yang menuntut ketelitian, keterampilan, dan pemahaman mendalam terhadap prosedur medis yang aman. Namun, kesalahan atau kelalaian dalam menghadapi kasus komplikasi dapat menimbulkan risiko hukum bagi bidan, termasuk tuntutan malpraktik dan sanksi profesi. Sosialisasi mengenai risiko hukum ini menjadi sangat penting untuk meningkatkan kesadaran bidan akan tanggung jawab profesional, memperkuat praktik yang sesuai standar, serta mencegah terjadinya perselisihan hukum yang merugikan pasien maupun tenaga kesehatan.Kegiatan pengabdian ini bertujuan untuk memberikan edukasi kepada bidan terkait hak dan kewajiban profesional mereka, prosedur penanganan persalinan dengan komplikasi, serta potensi risiko hukum yang dapat muncul jika prosedur tidak sesuai standar. Metode sosialisasi dilakukan melalui workshop interaktif, diskusi kasus, dan penyebaran materi panduan hukum yang relevan, sehingga bidan tidak hanya memahami aspek teoretis, tetapi juga mampu menerapkan pengetahuan tersebut dalam praktik sehari-hari. Pendekatan partisipatif ini diharapkan dapat meningkatkan kemampuan kritis dan pengambilan keputusan bidan di lapangan. Hasil kegiatan menunjukkan peningkatan pemahaman bidan terhadap risiko hukum penanganan persalinan dengan komplikasi. Peserta mampu mengidentifikasi potensi kesalahan yang berisiko secara hukum, memahami prosedur dokumentasi yang tepat, serta mengetahui langkah-langkah preventif yang harus dilakukan untuk melindungi diri dan pasien. Selain itu, sosialisasi ini juga mendorong terciptanya budaya praktik yang aman dan bertanggung jawab, yang selaras dengan standar etika dan peraturan perundang-undangan di bidang kebidanan. Kesimpulannya, sosialisasi risiko hukum penanganan persalinan dengan komplikasi bagi bidan terbukti efektif dalam meningkatkan kesadaran profesional dan kesiapan menghadapi potensi masalah hukum. Kegiatan ini tidak hanya bermanfaat bagi peningkatan kualitas pelayanan kebidanan, tetapi juga berperan dalam membangun sistem kesehatan yang lebih aman, transparan, dan berkelanjutan. Rekomendasi ke depan mencakup pelaksanaan sosialisasi secara berkala serta integrasi materi hukum dalam pendidikan berkelanjutan bagi bidan di seluruh wilayah.

Abstract

This study examines the legal role of informed consent in high-risk dental medical procedures under Law Number 17 of 2023 on Health. Informed consent represents not only an ethical obligation but also a legal mechanism ensuring patient autonomy and professional accountability. Using a normative juridical method with statutory, conceptual, and case approaches, this research analyzes how the new legal framework strengthens patient protection and defines the professional responsibilities of dental practitioners. The findings indicate that despite the law’s explicit provisions particularly Articles 293 and 294 implementation remains constrained by limited legal literacy, ineffective communication, and insufficient documentation among practitioners. From the ethical perspective, informed consent reflects respect for autonomy, while legally it serves as preventive protection against malpractice claims. Therefore, enhancing professional understanding, integrating bioethics and health law in education, and ensuring standardized consent documentation are essential to achieving transparent, fair, and patient-centered dental services in Indonesia.

Abstract

Abstract: Professional ethics of doctors are an important foundation in the practice of quality health services. The application of professional ethics of doctors in health services for patients greatly determines the quality of services provided, both in terms of professionalism, safety, and patient comfort. This study aims to examine the application of medical professional ethics in providing health services to patients, focusing on aspects of honesty, medical confidentiality, and professional responsibility. The research method used was a literature study and interviews with medical personnel in several hospitals and clinics in Indonesia. The results show that although many doctors have implemented professional ethics well, there are still challenges in terms of effective communication between doctors and patients and adherence to the principle of medical confidentiality. In addition, the application of professional ethics is also influenced by cultural factors and the work environment in each health institution. Most doctors understand the importance of professional ethics, but their application is not yet fully optimal, especially in situations that require difficult decisions or conflicts of interest. This study provides recommendations to improve professional ethics training for doctors and create a work environment that supports the application of professional ethics in health services. It is hoped that with the implementation of better professional ethics, the quality of health services for patients can be further improved, create a more harmonious doctor-patient relationship, and reduce the risk of malpractice and patient complaints. Keywords: professional ethics, health services, medical confidentiality. Abstrak: Etika profesi dokter merupakan landasan penting dalam praktik pelayanan kesehatan yang berkualitas. Penerapan etika profesi dokter dalam pelayanan kesehatan bagi pasien sangat menentukan kualitas pelayanan yang diberikan, baik dari sisi profesionalisme, keamanan, maupun kenyamanan pasien. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengkaji penerapan etika profesi dokter dalam memberikan pelayanan kesehatan kepada pasien, dengan fokus pada aspek-aspek kejujuran, kerahasiaan medis, dan tanggung jawab profesional. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah studi literatur dan wawancara dengan tenaga medis di beberapa rumah sakit dan klinik di Indonesia. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa meskipun banyak dokter yang sudah menerapkan etika profesi dengan baik, masih ada tantangan dalam hal komunikasi efektif antara dokter dan pasien serta kepatuhan terhadap prinsip kerahasiaan medis. Selain itu, penerapan etika profesi juga dipengaruhi oleh faktor budaya dan lingkungan kerja yang ada di setiap institusi kesehatan. Sebagian besar dokter memahami pentingnya etika profesi, tetapi penerapannya belum sepenuhnya optimal, khususnya dalam situasi-situasi yang memerlukan keputusan sulit atau konflik kepentingan. Penelitian ini memberikan rekomendasi untuk meningkatkan pelatihan etika profesi dokter serta menciptakan lingkungan kerja yang mendukung penerapan etika profesi dalam pelayanan kesehatan. Diharapkan dengan penerapan etika profesi yang lebih baik, kualitas pelayanan kesehatan bagi pasien dapat lebih ditingkatkan, menciptakan hubungan dokter-pasien yang lebih harmonis, dan mengurangi risiko malpraktik serta keluhan pasien. Kata kunci: etika profesi, pelayanan kesehatan, kerahasiaan medis.

Abstract: Adolescents' lack of knowledge about reproductive health, as well as lack of access to adolescent-friendly health services, are an important background in this study. This study aims to analyze the implementation of reproductive health services for adolescents in East Aceh from a legal and ethical perspective, and assess the extent to which the principle of protection of adolescent health rights is carried out in accordance with local regulations and religious norms. This study uses a qualitative method with a juridical-sociological approach. Data was obtained through interviews with health workers, adolescents, religious leaders, and regional policy makers, as well as documentation of health service regulations and ethical guidelines. Data analysis was carried out in an analytical descriptive manner by considering positive legal norms and medical ethical principles. The results of the study show that although there is a national regulation guaranteeing the right to reproductive health of adolescents, its implementation in East Aceh faces various obstacles, such as cultural resistance, limited trained medical personnel, and lack of public understanding of the urgency of reproductive health education. From a legal perspective, there is a gap between national policy and local qanun, while ethically, health services still often clash with the conservative values of local communities. In conclusion, adolescent reproductive health services in East Aceh still need to be improved through an interdisciplinary approach that harmonizes aspects of national law, local values, and principles of medical ethics. Keywords: Reproductive Health, Adolescents, Legal Ethics. Abstrak: Adolescents' lack of knowledge about reproductive health, as well as lack of access to adolescent-friendly health services, are an important background in this study.

Abstract

Abstract: The phenomenon of increasing criminalization of medical personnel in various cases in Indonesia raises concerns about legal certainty in the health world. Therefore, it is important to examine how the national legal system provides fair and balanced protection for medical personnel in carrying out their duties. This research uses normative juridical methods, with legislative, conceptual, and case study approaches. The data used includes related laws and regulations, legal literature, and medical professional documents. This approach aims to analyze the legal norms that govern the protection of medical personnel, as well as identify legal gaps or disharmonized norms that have the potential to hinder legal certainty. The results of the study show that although there are a number of regulations such as the Medical Practice Law, the Hospital Law, and the Criminal Code, the implementation of legal protection for medical personnel still faces challenges. Different interpretations of the law by law enforcement officials, as well as patients' ignorance of medical procedures, often cause medical personnel to become vulnerable parties. In addition, the non-optimal role of the Indonesian Medical Discipline Honorary Council (MKDKI) in separating the ethical and criminal realms has also muddy law enforcement in the health sector. In conclusion, legal certainty for medical personnel can only be realized through strengthening regulations that affirm the limits of legal responsibility of medical personnel, as well as the need for alignment between criminal law instruments and professional ethics. Legal education for the community and increased competence of law enforcement officials in understanding the medical context are also needed.  Keywords: Legal certainty, medical personnel, legal protection. Abstrak: Fenomena meningkatnya kriminalisasi tenaga medis dalam berbagai kasus di Indonesia menimbulkan kekhawatiran akan kepastian hukum dalam dunia kesehatan. Oleh karena itu, penting untuk menelaah bagaimana sistem hukum nasional memberikan perlindungan yang adil dan seimbang terhadap tenaga medis dalam menjalankan tugasnya. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode yuridis normatif, dengan pendekatan perundang-undangan, konseptual, dan studi kasus. Data yang digunakan adalah mencakup peraturan perundang-undangan terkait,  literatur hukum, dan dokumen profesional medis. Pendekatan ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis norma hukum yang mengatur perlindungan tenaga medis, serta mengidentifikasi kekosongan hukum atau disharmonisasi norma yang berpotensi menghambat kepastian hukum. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa walaupun terdapat sejumlah regulasi seperti Undang-Undang Praktik Kedokteran, Undang-Undang Rumah Sakit, dan Kitab Undang-Undang Hukum Pidana, namun implementasi perlindungan hukum terhadap tenaga medis masih menghadapi tantangan. Interpretasi hukum yang berbeda oleh aparat penegak hukum, serta ketidaktahuan pasien terhadap prosedur medis, sering kali menyebabkan tenaga medis menjadi pihak yang rentan. Selain itu, belum optimalnya peran Majelis Kehormatan Disiplin Kedokteran Indonesia (MKDKI) dalam memisahkan ranah etik dan pidana turut memperkeruh penegakan hukum di bidang kesehatan. Sebagai kesimpulan, kepastian hukum bagi tenaga medis hanya dapat terwujud melalui penguatan regulasi yang menegaskan batas tanggung jawab hukum tenaga medis, serta perlunya penyelarasan antara instrumen hukum pidana dan etik profesi. Diperlukan pula edukasi hukum bagi masyarakat dan peningkatan kompetensi aparat penegak hukum dalam memahami konteks medis. Kata kunci: Kepastian Hukum, Tenaga Medis, Perlindungan Hukum.

Abstract

Abstract: The current development of digital technology in the health sector has given rise to the innovation of teledentistry services that allow remote consultations between dentists and patients. In Indonesia, the use of teledentistry is increasing, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic as an alternative to conventional services. However, the adaptation of these services poses various legal challenges, such as legal certainty over the professional responsibilities of dentists, the protection of patient data, and the validity of online diagnoses. This background encourages the need for in-depth legal studies to ensure that the practice of teledentistry runs in accordance with applicable laws and regulations and ensures legal protection for all parties involved. This study aims to analyze the legal aspects of health related to the use of teledentistry by dentists in Indonesia. The method used is a normative approach with analysis of relevant regulations such as the Law on Medical Practice, the Law on Information and Electronic Transactions, as well as the Regulation of the Indonesian Medical Council and the Code of Ethics for Dentistry. The results of the study show that although there is no legal principle against the practice of teledentistry, there are still legal gaps and regulatory inconsistencies that can cause legal doubts for dentists in carrying out the practice, especially in technical regulations or clear operational guidelines.  Keywords: Teledentistry, Dentistry, Health Law. Abstrak: Perkembangan teknologi digital saat ini dalam bidang kesehatan memunculkan inovasi layanan teledentistry yang memungkinkan konsultasi dengan jarak jauh antara dokter gigi dan pasien. Di Indonesia, penggunaan teledentistry semakin meningkat terutama selama masa pandemi COVID-19 sebagai alternatif layanan konvensional. Namun, adaptasi layanan ini menimbulkan berbagai tantangan hukum, seperti kepastian hukum atas tanggung jawab profesional dokter gigi, perlindungan data pasien, serta validitas diagnosis secara daring. Latar belakang tersebut mendorong perlunya kajian hukum yang mendalam untuk memastikan bahwa praktik teledentistry berjalan sesuai dengan peraturan perundang-undangan yang berlaku serta menjamin perlindungan hukum bagi seluruh pihak yang terlibat. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis aspek hukum kesehatan yang berkaitan dengan penggunaan teledentistry oleh dokter gigi di Indonesia. Metode yang digunakan adalah pendekatan normatif dengan analisis terhadap regulasi yang relevan seperti Undang-Undang Praktik Kedokteran, Undang-Undang Informasi dan Transaksi Elektronik, serta Peraturan Konsil Kedokteran Indonesia dan Kode Etik Kedokteran Gigi. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa meskipun secara prinsip hukum tidak ada larangan terhadap praktik teledentistry, masih terdapat kekosongan hukum dan ketidaksesuaian regulasi yang dapat menimbulkan keraguan hukum bagi para dokter gigi dalam menjalankan praktik tersebut terutama dalam peraturan teknis atau pedoman operasional yang jelas. Kata Kunci: Teledentistry, Dokter Gigi, Hukum Kesehatan
