In carrying out their obligations, doctors can make mistakes or negligence when carrying out their profession which is called malpractice. Medical malpractice is not mentioned in the legal regulations on health law or medical practice law in Indonesia because the elements of medical malpractice in the form of errors or negligence have been accommodated in the ethical guidelines and guidelines for the discipline of health service practices as well as from the side of health services and medical practice.
