THE MEDIATION IN THE DIFFERENT PUBLIC SPHERES 2021 CONFERENCE PROCEEDINGS, 2021, issue 1, 24-37

Abstract: It is considered how mediation is regulated as an out-of-court way of agreement between two disputing parties in the healthcare system. For this purpose, an analysis of the current general and special laws, according to which such an agreement can be implemented, has been made. Practical issues related to problems in the implementation of the agreement are also presented, in view of the specifics of the disputes in the healthcare sector. The new legal figure of a "health mediator" is analyzed, the rights and obligations that are normatively regulated, the benefits and the needs for optimization of the regulation. The results of the analysis are summarized and specific conclusions "de lege ferenda" are proposed.
