我国医疗损害证明责任的转换配置问题研究

The Improvement of the Burden of Proof of Medical Tort in China

为了平衡医患双方之合法权益,医方在医事诉讼中的强势地位,司法解释民事诉讼证据规则对医疗过错及其因果关系的证明实行责任倒置,而我国《侵权责任法》第七章实质上已经修正了民事诉讼证据规则的证明责任倒置的规定,医疗纠纷中举证责任倒置制度在我国已然名存实亡。在侵权责任法中有关医疗损害责任的规定虽然是民事实体法上新的制度安排,但作为弱势群体的患方权益仍然难以得到有效保障,为了找到医患双方利益的平衡点,在民事诉讼程序方面对于医疗过错证明责任的分配需要运用举证责任转换制度进行重新配置。
