Deprivation Of Right to Life by Medical Negligence – Problems and Solutions

In the present time the doctor has become more negligent in his occupation. The present law needs to be amended, for if the law is not rigid, the poorer and lower class people will die less than the illness, more than the negligence in curing the disease. There is currently more negligence in private hospitals, if the patient dies, the dead body is taken into custody, that the dead body will not be given to the body until full payment is made to the hospital. There is a need for unexpired investigation to be conducted and sent for examination in the hospital itself or to those concerned. If a patient has to undergo an examination at another centre, it is not accepted, and if a patient is admitted in the hospital, he may not be able to purchase the same medicine at his favorite store. Doctors are not at all familiar with the disease of the patients. The crimes which are currently being committed by medicine are called white pox crimes in the language of criminology, but it is defined as a separate offence by creating different methods. If a person contrasts his legal right under tort law, he can obtain compensation. The Consumer Protection Act, 1986 constituted consumer courts in which disputes are settled. At present, the Consumer Protection Act, 1986 has been replaced by the Consumer Protection Act, 2019 Medical is a service under the Consumer Protection Act as the doctor is a service provider and patients are a consumer who takes that service and, therefore, if there is any deficiency in service, the patient can obtain compensation by way of litigation in the consumer court under the Consumer Protection Act, 2019.
