Abstract
This study evaluates legal responsibility in postoperative medical services related to informed consent procedures. Hospitals are obliged to provide quality, fair and equitable health services. Informed consent is key in the doctor-patient relationship, affirming the patient's right to obtain complete information about medical procedures, alternatives, risks, and prognosis. The transformation of the health system in Indonesia emphasizes the importance of written consent before medical action. The research method uses a normative juridical approach with descriptive analysis to examine legal issues related to informed consent. The results showed that informed consent in Indonesia is regulated in Law No. 29 of 2004 concerning Medical Practice and Law No. 36 of 2009 concerning Health. Lack of information provided by health workers can have legal consequences. Standard Operating Procedures (SPO) and professional ethics are important guidelines for health workers in providing medical services. Article 1365 of the Civil Code regulates the obligation to compensate for losses due to unlawful acts. The complaint mechanism to the Indonesian Medical Discipline Honor Council (MKDKI) is a means for the public to file complaints related to medical services. Thus, this study emphasizes the importance of transparency and understanding in informed consent to improve the quality of medical services and the protection of patient rights.
