Medical law

Medical law is a highly complex field. Some lawyers argue that medical law does not exist as such and consider it a non-independent branch of law.

The problem of the field lies in the absence of codification and an overwhelming number of orders, resolutions and other regulations. Some are updated constantly, others have stayed unchanged for decades — and that doesn't stop either from being in force. Making sense of it all is incredibly hard even for a lawyer without experience in this area. That's why I offer the following services:

• Consultations and clarifications on the legislative and regulatory framework that governs medical law in Ukraine.
• Legal and documentary support for licensing the business activity of a medical practice in any region of Ukraine.
• Drafting medical-services agreements for healthcare institutions.
• Preparing an individual medical-services agreement for a patient.
• Developing schemes and contracts for complex three-party or multi-party treatment arrangements involving several medical institutions, or medical institutions and intermediary structures.
• A legal audit of a medical institution's existing medico-legal documents, with conclusions and recommendations tailored to the needs and goals of the particular healthcare institution.
• Representation of medical institutions and doctors in private practice before the courts of Ukraine.
• Retainer services for private healthcare institutions and doctors running independent business activity.
• Legal and organizational support for patients who are foreign nationals arriving in Ukraine for treatment.
• Consultations and preparation of documents for the state registration of medicinal products.
