- Share to:
Abstract
Purpose – The purpose of this study is to determine the existing legal implications for medical negligence in India
and recommending how open communication and empathy by the doctors can help prevent these implications.
Design/methodology/approach – This research is based on a qualitative method. Indian laws, Indian
constitution, journal articles, books and other writings have been reviewed to develop this study.
Findings – There are many legal implications for medical negligence in India, and justice can be demanded
under a number of Indian laws. This study also found that it is important to create awareness regarding the
laws governing medical negligence through effective communication and empathy.
Originality/value – Extant literature discusses in detail the various laws related to medical negligence
and few talk about creating awareness about these laws amongst people, and while some researchers
understand the importance of sensitizing health professionals of the nitty-gritty of the legal implication
governing medical negligence, none provides a framework of medical negligence with the help of sensitizing
health professionals through communication. This study fills the gap by focusing on prevention than cure.
