Legal aspects of medical services in the professional activity of a doctor

The substantiation of the need to improve the legal model of ensuring the safety of interaction between the patient and medical personnel in the provision of medical services is given. The study conducted a comparative legal analysis of the sources of legal regulation of individual components of the quality of medical services. The material for the assessment were articles of the Federal law "On the basis of health protection of citizens in the Russian Federation", as well as orders approved by the Ministry of Health of the Russian Federation. Proposals have been developed to improve the current legislation aimed at ensuring legal protection of medical personnel. On the basis of the conducted research it is established that there is no legal definition of quality of medical services. Existing laws protect the rights of patients, but the professional activities of medical personnel do not have a system of insurance of risks that create increased danger in the provision of medical care to the population.
