医疗机构隔离措施的法律责任

On Medical Institutions' Legal Responsibilities in Taking Isolation Measures

隔离措施的实施直接影响着行政相对人的人身权和财产权,应该受到法律的严格规制。医疗机构作为隔离措施中的行政授权组织与患者存在医患强制法律关系和医患合同法律关系,不同的法律关系产生不同的法律责任。现行法律对隔离措施的规范与机制设置尚有缺陷,透过对既有层面有关法律责任规则的梳理和辨析,基于自由安全的价值考量,依据利益平衡、规范严密的原则,期待未来立法针对医疗机构隔离措施法律责任规范的疏漏与不足加以规定和完善。

Isolation is a real-time and compulsory measure commonly observed in the prevention and control of infectious diseases,and its implementation directly affects the personal right and property right of the administrative counterpart.Medical institution is an authorized administrative organization,and its staff therefore keep a compulsory legal relationship and contractual legal relationship with patients.When taking isolation measures,medical institutions assume different responsibilities for patients,including compensatory liability with legal behavior and punitive responsibility with illegal actions.Punitive responsibility can be divided into civil legal liability,administrative responsibility and criminal liability.At present,there remain some deficiencies in the existing laws and regulations concerning what legal status and legal liability medical institutions should take.Relevant legislation is expected for improvement.
