Гражданско-правовые меры повышения качества и конкурентоспособности медицинских услуг в области суицида

The purpose of the article is to study civil law measures to improve the quality and competitiveness in the field of suicide. In the course of the study, the methods of scientific analysis and the formal legal method were used. Medical services in the field of suicide are considered proceeding from the current policy of restraining sanctions against Russia. We studied the quality and competitiveness of medical services in the field of suicide from the point of view of civil law science in three key moments. The first point: causing harm to the health of the subject of suicide as a result of the provision of medical services in the field of suicide. It is noted that the interests of the doctor and the patient who committed suicide may have the character of imbalance. The conclusion is drawn that the institution of quality of medical services in the field of suicide is interlinked with the issue of harm to the patient's health, both on the part of the patient himself in the event of the act of suicide, and on the part of doctors as a result of the provision of poor medical services. In this case, the harm from suicide and harm from the actions of doctors by law is not in any way delimited. That should not be. The second point: medical error. It is alleged that in legal and medical practice the model of the dispute between an individual who committed an act of suicide and a medical organization (doctor) is quite obvious, the essence of which can be reduced to poor medical services based on the fact that the doctor made a mistake in providing medical assistance in the field of suicide. Despite the existence of unambiguous (obvious and proven) medical errors in practice (regardless of the reasons for their occurrence such as low doctor's qualifications, lack of medicines, loss of time, etc., one should remember the behavior of the subject of suicide, his actions aimed at causing himself harm. Harm from suicide has one goal - causing death. The third point: civil and legal responsibility of the doctor. In medical organizations, doctors are sued for compensation for moral harm, they receive complaints about the actions of medical personnel, the quality of medical services, conducted operations, procedures. Patients are also trying to recover damages. In conclusion, civil-law measures are proposed to improve the quality and competitiveness of medical services in the field of suicide in the form of separate conclusions and concepts.
