Abstract

Medical Profession was included under The Consumer Protection Act (CPA) in 1986 to provide a forum tosafeguard the rights of the customers and establish guidelines for the speedy redressal of their grievancesagainst unethical medical practices. This by far has been the most crucial legislations introduced in theframework of health professionals which over the years seems to have propelled them to practice in a guardedmanner. In recent times this also seems to be flanked by a spurt in Violence against the Doctors enormously.It is thereby imperative for all medical professionals to not only have a comprehensive knowledge of ethicsand laws related to health care and medicolegal issues but also its implications in their profession. In thisvery light the current study was conducted as an attempt to assess the perception of undergraduate medicalstudents towards medical ethics, CPA and its influence on Violence against Doctors.
