The Role of the Indonesian Doctors Association (IDI) in Providing Legal Services for Doctors Suspected of Making Mistakes in Health Services (Study of the Indonesian Doctors Association, West Kalimantan)
Keywords:
Legal Protection, Medical Dispute Resolution, Role of IDIAbstract
This research examines the dynamics of legal protection in health services in West Kalimantan, with a focus on the delegation of authority from doctors to nurses and the role of the Indonesian Doctors Association (IDI) in providing legal protection to doctors. The methodology used includes normative juridical and sociological juridical approaches, combining legal document analysis and field observations at IDI West Kalimantan. The research results show that errors in medical services, such as negligence and malpractice, can have serious consequences, including legal action against health workers. Efforts to resolve cases through mediation, arbitration and litigation were introduced as mechanisms for handling disputes, with an emphasis on peaceful resolution and restoration of patient-health worker relationships. This research also highlights the important role of IDI in legal assistance for doctors, both before and after the enactment of Law no. 17 of 2023 concerning Health. The implementation of the law changed the structure of medical dispute resolution, shifting the main responsibility to the disciplinary panel established by the Ministry of Health, while the IDI focused on professional and advocacy aspects. This study contributes to the understanding of legal protection in healthcare, shows the evolution of the role of IDI, and discusses the impact of legislative changes on medical practice in Indonesia.
