Item Elementos del derecho médico(Universidad Santiago de Cali, 2020) Jojoa Pinchao, Leny Andrea; Rincòn Andreu GerardMedical law ─being a special field of law─ seeks to show the area concerning the legislation included on the medical practice, involving ethics as an essential factor. To develop this topic, it is necessary to define the elements that distinguish medical law. To do so the next questions are going to be answered throughout the text: Which are the specific elements that form medical law? How should the physician-patient relationship be? It is also important to divide the subject into three sections: the first one on the theoreticalconceptual description, and, therefore, the delimitation of the elements of medical law; then, in depth, the physician practice and the doctor-patient relationship will be studied; and lastly, the applicability and relationship of the elements in the medical-legal field. To achieve this goal the methodology is based on the study of a subject that is not studied in depth, through the compilation of studies that approach the subject. Then, it is theorized, and later a postulate is proposed about the elements of medical law. This will allow the reader having a broader view of the fields associated with medical law. These are fully relevant and worthwhile, considering legal problems in the activities of health care practitioners; even more so, given the statistics that show an increase in lawsuits due to medical liability. Additionally, due to the situation of the present health emergency by COVID-19, a mention of the current scenario will be made, as well as a possible behavioral approach to the pandemic and the reaction of the Colombian healthcare system.
