Abstract

AbstractAs an institution authorized to deal with legal complaints concerning improper health services, Indonesian Medical Disciplinary Honorary Assembly (MKDKI) has the task of determining whether there are malpractices made by doctors or dentists in the application of medical disciplines in terms of medical professional standards. This authority is stipulated in Article 66 (1) Law Number 29 of 2004 concerning Medical Practice. However, disharmony which occurs between such article and article 66 (3) as well as several health related law in Indonesia seems like negating MKDKI role in determining the element of negligence at the time of an alleged violation such as medical malpractice. Based on this condiion, the study was conducted to examine the impact of such legal disharmony in the practices and services of  Indonesian health sector. Keywords: Medical Law, Patient’s Right, Existence of MKDKI AbstrakSebagai lembaga yang memiliki kewenangan dalam menangani pengaduan atas pelayanan kesehatan, Majelis Kehormatan Disiplin Kedokteran Indonesia (MKDKI) memiliki tugas untuk menentukan ada tidaknya kesalahan yang dilakukan oleh dokter atau dokter gigi dalam penerapan disiplin ilmu kedokteran dan kedokteran gigi yang tidak sesuai dengan standar profesi medik. Kewenangan ini tercantum dalam ketentuan Pasal 66 Ayat (1) Undang-Undang Nomor 29 Tahun 2004 tentang Praktik Kedokteran. Akan tetapi, disharmoni antara ketentuan Pasal 66 Ayat (1) dengan Ayat (3) dan beberapa regulasi yang terkait dengan bidang kesehatan seakan menegaskan peranan MKDKI dalam menentukan unsur kelalaian pada saat suatu dugaan pelanggaran seperti malpraktik medik. Penelitian ini dilakukan untuk mengkaji tentang akibat hukum dari disharmoni peraturan perundang-undangan di bidang kesehatan itu serta dampaknya terhadap praktik kedokteran Indonesia. Melalui tulisan ini diharapkan dapat diperoleh kesimpulan dan saran-saran yang relevan yang dapat diterapkan untuk mewujukan pembangunan kesehatan yang berkualitas untuk masyarakat. Kata Kunci: Hukum Kesehatan, Hak Pasien, Eksistensi MKDKI

Abstract

The number of high-rise buildings in the big cities of Indonesia is increasing along with land being more limited and its prices being very high. Most of these high-rise buildings are in Jakarta and some of them are facing the risk of building failure that may cause business and operation interruption.  These buildings that have been erected and operating need to receive regular maintenance and supervision to ensure the building's condition and safety. Many building owners and managers do not conduct and plan maintenance and supervision properly causing these buildings of being at risk of fire and building structure – mechanical failure / damage. For this reason, rigorous regulations, and its enforcement in building construction and maintenance are needed to ensure that these buildings operate reliably and encourage building owners and facility manager to comply with them properly. Cultivated Penalty and strict sanctions need to be renewed and must be implemented properly by Government bodies and local authority. Building Audit Institute can be formed to assist the central government and local governments (Governor) in carrying out their functions to ensure the safety and security of buildings, including their users. Strengthening existing laws and regulations will greatly assist in law enforcement and certainty for owners, building managers and building users, which in turn will support national development.

Abstract

Health is one of the most important human rights in human life. Access to affordable prescription drugs is still a problem for people with out-of-pocket expenses. Generic prescription drugs that are much cheaper than non-generic drugs are still low, especially in non-government healthcare facilities. This research aims to provide suggestions of regulation on price control of prescription drugs and generic prescription drugs that will assure certainty and affordability for the public. The methodology is doctrinal legal research and is supported by empirical studies. The research finding consist of two things, namely the price of prescription drugs and the prescription of generic drugs. The first finding is that Highest Retail Price (HET) set by the manufacturer is potentially to be unlimited because there is no limit control. Currently, there are many drugs sold over HET with minimal supervision from the Government. The absence of law is found as the existing regulations are only for those listed in the National Formulary, while the rest have not been regulated. Therefore, the suggestion is to set ceiling prices for prescription drugs with comparison among generic drugs, branded generic drugs, and the originator; also create a refund mechanism for prices above HET to assure the consumers’ rights to get compensation under the Consumer Protection Law. The second finding is that only a few doctors prescribe generic drugs. Additionally, patients have not been involved in the treatment decisions.Therefore, the suggestion is to associate "the action of prescribing generic drugs" with the extension of doctor's license, namelythe Registration Certificate (STR); so that doctors will prescribe generic drugs without the need for close supervision due to their interests. With the increase of generic drugs’ prescription, the financing of health services, nationwide as well asindividually, can become more affordable.

Abstract

Normatively, the legal responsibilities of hospitals in fulfilling patient rights are stipulated in the Health Act, the Hospital Act, and the Medical Practice Act. During the Covid-19 pandemic, which was declared a health emergency, various statutory provisions were also enacted, such as Infectious Disease Outbreak Law, Health Quarantine Law, Presidential Decree Number 11 of 2020 concerning the Determination of the National Public Health Emergency of Corona Virus Disease 2019 (Covid-19) and Minister of Health Regulation Number 4 of 2018 concerning Hospital Obligations and Patient Obligations. In practice, the increasing number of Covid-19 cases in Indonesia has resulted in hospitals being unable to accommodate patients who need treatment, especially patients with severe and critical conditions who require ICU treatment rooms. This study aims to find out hospital’s legal responsibility after the Covid-19 pandemic, especially for the protection of patient’s medical record security under the scheme of telemedicine services. In terms of facilities and infrastructure, the government needs to provide support by increasing the number of emergency hospitals to accommodate patients. This study uses normative juridical research methods supported by empirical studies. The results show that despite limitations in providing excellent health services to patients, hospitals must still maintain the rights of patient’s medical record security and safety while undergoing hospitalization. Legal umbrella is neeeded to guarantee the rights of health workers and hospitals in providing services to patients during this pandemic, especially the protection of Occupational Health and labor social security norms.

Abstract

This study explores how Indonesia’s present regulatory framework navigates to protect spousal health from Sexually Transmitted Diseases (STDs) transmission within marriage. Employing a normative legal approach which combines statutory analysis and comparative methods. The analysis focuses on Indonesia’s regulatory framework. Findings reveal that the current regulations including the Constitution 1945, Health Law, Marriage Law, Elimination of Domestic Violence Law, Criminal Code, various Regional Regulations and Regulation of The Minister of Health. These regulations provide limited coverage of instances where individuals jeopardies the health of others, particularly spouses, through the transmission of STDs. Comparative analysis of Singapore, Cambodia, Brunei Darussalam, and the United Kingdom demonstrate a common emphasis on informed consent and risk mitigation, often achieved through criminalization of non-disclosure of HIV status. However, the study acknowledges the limitations of such punitive approaches in achieving sustainable public health outcomes. The conclusion proposes moving beyond the current framework. It suggests leveraging the Health Law’s framework for family health promotion and its association with disease control. This could involve establishing a regulatory system grounded in scientific research, prioritizing a consensual and holistic approach cantered on comprehensive education and prevention programs. This approach recognizes STDs as a social issue requiring collective action, contrasting with the tendency in some neighboring countries to view them solely as a medical concern. By addressing these legal gaps and fostering responsible sexual health practices within marriage, Indonesia can contribute to a healthier and more secure marital environment for its citizens.

Abstract

Algorithm as a digital innovation plays a crucial role in facilitating communication and public discourse. Its utilization is a significant issue that must be carefully analyzed to ensure it doesn’t impede key human rights, specifically the right to freedom of expression. The widespread use of digital platforms has created an urgency to examine this issue. The purpose of this study is to analyze the interaction between algorithms as digital innovations, their protection through the relevant IPR regimes, and their implications on freedom of expression. Through normative legal research methods and a statutory approach, this research finds that among various intellectual property regimes, the patent system offers the best potential for balancing the protection of algorithmic innovations with transparency. However, the analysis also reveals that current patent regulations still lack certain provisions to adequately safeguard freedom of expression in relation to patented algorithms. This research offers a proposed model of development that can be utilized to improve Indonesia’s protection of the right to freedom of expression through the patent regime, while also protecting algorithms as a key digital innovation.
