Medical error as a basis for exemption from civil liability

This article examines the legal nature of the "medical error", highlights the factors and causes that give rise to them. There are two groups of reasons that give rise to medical errors: objective (extremely serious condition of the patient and late hospitalization) and subjective (underestimation or overestimation of the patient's condition). The conclusion is argued that a medical error, as a kind of professional error, is characterized by an innocent act of a person providing a medical service, which excludes civil liability.
