Abstract

Obstetricians are often confronted with medical malpractice lawsuits, even when they have acted in accordance with professional standards, medical service standards, operational procedures, and medical ethics. Medical malpractice is generally defined as negligence or deviation from professional standards that results in serious harm to patients (Fiscina, 1999). This study aims to examine the application of the concept of medical malpractice along with its legal implications and to analyze the forms of legal protection available to obstetricians under Law Number 17 of 2023 on Health, viewed from the perspective of the principle of justice. Using a normative juridical method with descriptive-analytical specifications, the research employed a literature study and qualitative deductive analysis. The results indicate that legal protection for obstetricians consists of two dimensions: preventive and repressive. Preventive protection includes the implementation of informed consent, proper medical records, and compliance with standard operating procedures. Repressive protection involves legal defense mechanisms and institutional or professional organizational support. However, this protection remains suboptimal, as the decisions of the Indonesian Medical Disciplinary Board (MKDKI) are not always taken into account by the courts (Rahman, 2022). From the perspective of Rawls’ principle of justice, protection for obstetricians should ensure a balanced recognition of both patients’ and doctors’ rights, thereby promoting fairness and equitable justice for all parties (Rawls, 1971).

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the application of the doctrine of vicarious liability in the liability of hospitals for medical malpractice lawsuits in Indonesia. The increasing number of medical disputes raises questions regarding the extent to which hospitals can be held responsible for the negligence of medical personnel working under their authority. This research employs a normative juridical method with statutory, conceptual, and case approaches, by examining the Indonesian Civil Code, Law No. 44 of 2009 on Hospitals, Law No. 17 of 2023 on Health, and relevant court decisions. The findings reveal that, normatively, hospitals can be held accountable under Article 1367 of the Civil Code, which aligns with the doctrine of vicarious liability (Black, 2019). However, judicial practice in Indonesia remains inconsistent: in some cases judges place liability on hospitals, while in others they hold individual doctors fully responsible (Budiman, Absori & Rizka, 2023; Vitrianingsih, Miarsa & Yahya, 2025). This inconsistency demonstrates a gap between normative regulation and juridical implementation. The novelty of this study lies in emphasizing the importance of the principle of justice in applying vicarious liability. Legal protection should not be limited to written norms but must also be substantive by balancing patients’ rights to safe and quality healthcare with the rights of medical personnel and hospitals to legal certainty. This is in line with Rawls’ (1971) concept of justice as fairness and Radbruch’s (2006) idea of balancing justice, legal certainty, and expediency.
