Medico-legal Forum, 24 Nov 2013

The increase in medical litigation is real and imminent that challenges both practitioners of medicine and law. In light of this, the FPMPAM organized the Medico-Legal Forum on 24 Nov 2013 to bring into focus the important issues besetting doctors and patients in Malaysia’s healthcare landscape.

With the attendance of prominent legal authorities such as the Queen’s Counsel, Mrs Susan Rodway from the UK; Philip Koh a prominent lawyer in practice in Malaysia and  Datuk Sundra Rajoo, Director of the KL Regional Centre for Arbitration, the increasing medico legal impact of the commercialization of medicine was examined in the background of local and international law. The forum focused on contractual misalignments in agreements made between doctors, hospitals and MCOs and how such misalignments jeopardize patient safety and compromises the position of the doctor in his duty of care to his patient. The meeting was attended by more than 120 doctors and lawyers.
