Abstract

The principle of autonomy is one of the main pillars of medical bioethics, realized through the process of obtaining informed consent for medical procedures. In Indonesia, the implementation of informed consent has not yet fully reflected respect for patients’ autonomous rights. The process of obtaining medical consent is often perceived merely as an administrative formality rather than a meaningful two-way communication between doctor and patient. This article aims to examine the principle of autonomy in Indonesian medical practice from both ethical and legal perspectives. The study employs a normative legal research method using a statute approach and conceptual approach, supported by primary, secondary, and tertiary legal materials relevant to the period between 2015 and 2025. The findings indicate that the main obstacles in implementing informed consent include the persistence of a paternalistic culture, low patient health literacy, limited consultation time, and the use of overly technical consent forms that hinder understanding. Although relevant regulations already exist, their practical application remains suboptimal. A comprehensive strategy involving clinical communication training, patient empowerment, and periodic ethical audits is needed to ensure full protection of patient rights.

Abstract

Human organ transplantation has become a prominent topic alongside the advancement of law and technology. Through the transplantation process, an individual may obtain an organ from another person. This study aims to examine the debate between humanitarian principles and economic considerations in the practice of organ transplantation, as well as the legal framework governing organ transplantation in Indonesia. This study is a doctrinal legal study employing conceptual and statutory approaches, and using secondary legal materials analysed qualitatively to address the central issues concerning the discourse on organ transplantation in Indonesia. The findings indicate that human organ transplantation remains ethically complex, as economic pressures and poverty often influence consent, leading to exploitation and commercialisation. Despite existing legal prohibitions, the tension between humanitarian objectives and economic necessity persists, revealing gaps in ensuring voluntary donation, fairness, and the protection of human dignity. The Government of Indonesia, through Law Number 17 of 2023 on Health (Articles 124 to 134) and Government Regulation Number 28 of 2024 (Articles 325 to 381), stipulates the procedures, medical requirements, and ethical and legal aspects of organ transplantation for humanitarian and health recovery purposes, while explicitly prohibiting any form of commercialisation.
