Abstract

Overdose is a serious condition that occurs due to consuming excessive amounts of a drug or substance, which can be life-threatening. Legal protection for patients who experience an overdose is very important, especially related to patient rights, responsibilities of medical personnel, and health policies. According to WHO (World Health Organization), overdose is the use of psychoactive substances in dangerous amounts, which results in adverse effects, including death. Legal protection of patients who have overdosed is essential to ensure that they receive necessary treatment without fear of legal consequences. By upholding patient rights, medical personnel responsibilities, and supportive health policies, we can reduce the impact of overdoses and improve health outcomes for at-risk individuals. Collaboration between the government, health service providers, and the community is needed to create a safe environment for patients and their families.

Abstract

Informed consent is a crucial element in the healthcare system as it ensures that patients provide consent based on a sufficient understanding of the medical procedures to be performed. In the context of emergency services, where patients often present with critical conditions requiring immediate action, the implementation of informed consent becomes more complex. BPJS Kesehatan, as the provider of healthcare services for the public, holds the responsibility to ensure that medical treatments within their network respect patient rights, both legally and ethically. This article aims to explore in-depth the legal and ethical aspects of implementing informed consent in emergency healthcare services under the BPJS Kesehatan program.
