Sažetak

The criminal offense of Medical Malpractice referred to in Article 181 Criminal Act / 11 is the most common criminal offense against human health seen in practice. Health professionals are engaged in providing health care, which puts them into a position of increased responsibility. Doctors are obliged to treat every patient and not to harm them. They are also obliged to preserve patient’s dignity and to keep the medical secret, but first of all they are obliged to help. During 2013, the Criminal Act introduced an amendment to the offense in question, which significantly reduced the legal qualification of the offense. It emphasized the essential role of selecting a medical expert of particular specialty in
evidencing the criminal offense in question and analysing some cases from recent case law.
