Abstract

Malpractice cases in dentistry have become an increasingly significant legal issue, particularly regarding the criminal liability of dentists. Law No. 17 of 2023 on Health introduces substantial changes in Indonesia’s health law regulations, including provisions on medical professionals’ legal accountability. This regulation defines the boundaries and sanctions for practices considered negligence or malpractice. This study aims to analyze the criminal liability of dentists in malpractice cases based on the provisions of Law No. 17 of 2023. The research method used is normative legal research based on literature, focusing on relevant regulations and legal concepts. The analysis shows that Law No. 17 of 2023 provides more explicit rules on dentists’ criminal liability. However, ambiguities remain in its implementation, particularly in distinguishing between negligence and malpractice. Additionally, legal protection for dentists facing malpractice allegations needs further clarification when implementing regulations. This study is expected to provide insights for legal practitioners and medical professionals to understand the legal implications of medical actions and offer recommendations for regulatory improvements in the future.

Abstract

There are complex issues concerning criminal acts and the criminal liability of military doctors within the scope of health law. Military doctors serve dual roles: as healthcare providers and as members of the military. When a military doctor commits a crime in the context of health services, they act as a doctor. However, they also hold the status of a member of the Indonesian National Army (TNI), which carries distinct legal implications. This background leads to two main problems in this study: (1) the application of criminal law to military doctors, and (2) the forms of criminal liability for military doctors who commit offenses in the health sector. The research method used in this thesis is normative juridical. This thesis explores the legal liability of military doctors for criminal acts in the health sector. Based on the findings and discussions in this thesis, it is concluded that there are currently no specific regulations or laws governing the application of criminal law to military doctors. Consequently, military doctors who commit negligence or violations in the health sector are subject to the Criminal Code. If the crime breaches both general criminal law and special criminal law provisions, the military doctor will be subject to special criminal law. Keywords : Criminal Acts ; Criminal Responsibility ; Military Doctor.

Abstract

The phenomenon of bullying within the specialist medical education system is a serious issue rooted in the rigid and closed hierarchical structure of teaching hospitals. This form of bullying not only threatens the mental health of medical residents but also raises profound concerns from the perspective of medical professional ethics and applicable legal norms. This study examines the issue using a normative legal research method (doctrinal approach), by analyzing relevant legal norms both written in legislation, legal doctrines, court decisions, and fundamental legal principles. The findings indicate that systematic bullying violates core ethical principles, such as the principle of non-maleficence (do no harm), justice, and respect for individual dignity. Furthermore, these practices contradict the constitutional rights of learners as guaranteed under Indonesia’s legal system. The absence of specific regulations protecting residents further exacerbates the power imbalance within medical education. Therefore, this study advocates for comprehensive reform, including the establishment of a safe and reliable reporting system, stronger legal protections for residents, and the integration of ethical values education into the medical curriculum.

Abstract

Fitness-for-work assessment is one of the core responsibilities in occupational medicine, particularly when dealing with workers experiencing health problems. This process requires not only accurate clinical judgment but also involves complex bioethical dimensions. This article aims to analyze the bioethical challenges faced by occupational physicians in determining fitness for work, with emphasis on the principles of autonomy, beneficence, non-maleficence, justice, and conflicts of interest. This study employs a qualitative approach through a systematic literature review and case reflections, complemented by semi-structured interviews with fifteen occupational health practitioners and human resource managers from the logistics, mining, and manufacturing sectors in Indonesia, conducted between January and May 2025. Data were analyzed thematically using a clinical bioethics framework. The findings reveal that medical decisions in this context often conflict with socio-economic pressures, productivity demands, and the limitations of Indonesia’s labor system. Power imbalances between employers and workers, low health literacy, and weak legal protection for medical professionals further exacerbate ethical dilemmas. Therefore, a multidisciplinary and systemic approach is needed—one that integrates ethical values into labor policy, occupational health training, and organizational governance. Fitness-for-work assessments should not merely serve as administrative procedures but must uphold justice, protect workers’ dignity, and reinforce the integrity of the medical profession.

Abstract

The normative conflict between Law No. 24 of 2011 on BPJS and Law No. 40 of 2004 on SJSN has led to regulatory disharmony in the implementation of Indonesia’s National Health Insurance (JKN). The primary discrepancy lies in the legal subjects authorized to establish cooperation agreements between BPJS and healthcare providers, resulting in legal uncertainty and affecting both access to healthcare services and the efficiency of INA-CBGs-based payment mechanisms. This study aims to examine the legal dimensions of this conflict and to propose regulatory harmonization strategies to ensure justice and sustainability within the JKN system. A normative legal research method is employed, using a statutory and conceptoal approach with qualitative-descriptive analysis of secondary legal materials. The findings reveal that the norm conflict has systemic implications for contractual administration, hospital financial sustainability, and potential moral hazard ultimately harms both JKN participants and healthcare providers. The inaccuracy of the INA-CBGs-based payment system, which does not reflect the actual cost of medical services, further exacerbates the situation, leading to the emergence of various fraudulent practices such as upcoding, repeat claims, and administrative manipulation.Legislative reform, INA-CBGs tariff evaluation, and the establishment of a tripartite negotiation forum are recommended to reinforce legal certainty and social equity in the delivery of national health services.

Abstract

This research analyzes the administrative legal issues related to the issuance of the Ministerial Decree on the establishment of the National Committee for Health Student Competency Tests in Indonesia, as examined in the Jakarta Administrative Court Decision Number 185/G/2022/PTUN.JKT. This research was conducted a normative legal method, using statute  approach, conceptual approach, and case approach to assess the legal basis for the decree, the minister's authority, and its implications for the principle of academic autonomy in higher education. The findings indicate that the ministerial decree contradicts applicable laws and regulations because it transfers responsibility for implementing competency tests from higher education institutions to a centralized administrative body. The court's decision confirms that this intervention violates the principles of academic autonomy and the principle of legality in state administrative law. Furthermore, this decision highlights the importance of implementing participatory governance, ensuring legal certainty, and protecting citizens' constitutional rights in education policy. This case sets an important precedent in restructuring the relationship between state intervention and academic independence and strengthening the role of the rule of law in higher education governance.

Abstract

This study emphasizes the relationship between legal aspects and health policy implementation, particularly the Antimicrobial Resistance Control and Prevention Program (PPRA) based on Ministry of Health Regulation No. 8 of 2015 and No. 28 of 2021. The program represents the hospital’s legal responsibility to ensure the right to safe, high-quality, and rational healthcare. Antimicrobial resistance, which increases patient morbidity and mortality, has become a global and national problem. This research employs a juridical-empirical method with a sociological approach, combining primary data from interviews with PPRA administrators and secondary data from legal documents and hospital policies. The results indicate that antibiotic use at Ulin Regional Hospital, Banjarmasin, has been regulated according to the PPRA guidelines established by the hospital director. However, implementation remains suboptimal, particularly in planning, supervision, and healthcare workers’ understanding of rational antibiotic use. The lack of management support and coordination serves as a major obstacle. Strengthening hospital information systems, managerial support, and active involvement of all health professionals are essential to ensure the sustainability of PPRA. From a health law perspective, PPRA implementation at Ulin Hospital has not fully met the principles of legal governance in healthcare. Strengthening internal regulations, enhancing managerial oversight, and conducting periodic evaluations based on the patient safety principle are required to improve compliance and service quality.
