The promulgation of regulations for the handling of malpractices by the State Council is a big event in the building of the legal system of medicine in China and is therefore of great significance. The regulations present a more specific, fair and reasonable definition of the concept and grades of malpractice, thus rendering it more in conformity with the meaning and scope of jurisprudence. By drawing a comparison with the Civil Law, the Law of Civil Procedure, the Law of Consumer Rights and Interests Protection and the Criminal Law, the author analyzes from the ju-risprudential perspective the Regulations' jurisprudential definition and module of malpractice. On the basis of this, the author reflects jurisprudentially on some of the major viewpoints presented in the Regulations and then puts forward suggestions and methods for perfecting medical laws and regulations, setting up a constraint mechanism for dealing with medical disputes and expanding channels of relief due to medical disputes.
