»Protection of the Patient with Obligation to Contract?« Whether, with whom and under what conditions a physician may conclude a contract governing medical treatment, he for himself can decide. However, in some situations, this freedom should be restricted in order to protect patients by imposing an obligation to contract on the physician. Thereby and within narrow limits, the patient receives to a certain extent an enforceable right against the physician for the issuance of a declaration of intention regarding the contract governing medical treatment.weiterlesen
