  • 본 글에서는 보건의료관련 법령 중 의료법, 응급의료에 관한 법률, 의료사고 피해구제 및 의료분쟁 조정 등에 관한 법률을 민법에 기초하여 검토하고 해석하였다. 보건의료분야는 보건의료기술의 발달에 따른 의료현장의 변화를 반영하는 여러 법률이 존재하고 그 제정이나 개정도 매우 빈번하다. 그리고 제정이나 개정의 과정에서 현장의 수요를 반영하면서 보건의료관련 법령의 양상은 매우 복잡해지고 있다. 이러한 상황에서 법을 위반하지 않으려면 상당한 주의를 기울여야만 하고, 법적용을 위해서 구체적 지침이나 유권해석을 필요로 하는 경우도 많아지고 있다. 그리고 심지어는 그 지침이나 유권해석도 민법과 모순되는 경우가 종종 발생한다. 이 글에서는 보건의료관련 법령의 조문상 오류와 해석상 민법의 사고와 모순되는 경우를 찾아내어 보건의료관련 법령의 입안과 해석, 적용에도 민법적 사고가 필요함을 확인하였다.

  • This article analyses the concept of medicine in the legal context. It is not easy to define the concept of medicine because medical practice has various dimensions and the situation in which the practice is performed has a broad variety. The duty of medical law is to build the boundary of protection in that the nature of medicine would not be distorted by the factors of social systems like industry or governmental authorities. Without understanding the various dimensions - especially the dimension of Humanities and Sociology - of the medicine it is not possible to draw the limit on the performance of medicine appropriately. Concerning the medical practice (especially in the context of the regulation of medical licence), the enacted law (Medical Act) defines the concept just for form's sake and it finally depends on the interpretation of the legal enforcement authorities. Moreover, between the judgments of the courts there exists no coherent principles for the regulation and the interpretation of the Medical Act depends often on the riskiness, the abstract concept, which finally leads the interpretation to depend on the subject of the practice. On the contrary, the development and scientific movement of the technology tends to tighten the range of the medical professionals of medical practice and the perspectives of the medicine. Medical act is actually oriented at the patient's understanding of him- or herself. The above-mentioned tendency of the interpretation and the legal policy could lead the medicine away from its nature.
