ABSOLUTE HUMAN RIGHTS IN THE FIELD OF HEALTHCARE: LEGAL GROUNDS FOR RESTRICTION

The article examines the legal nature of human rights in the field of health care. It has been substantiated that certain personal inalienable rights of an adult able-bodied patient are derived from the constitutional absolute human rights. These include the right to consent to medical intervention, the right to refuse medical intervention and the right to receive medical information about oneself. The status of law as an absolute constitutional presupposes certain objective differences in the exercise of this right by a person and in the mechanism of intervention of the state and other participants in relations in its exercise. Therefore, the enshrinement of constitutional human rights in special legislation should pursue the goal of providing additional protection of these rights and additional mechanisms for their implementation. In particular, the inclusion of constitutional human rights in civil law should provide additional legal safeguards for respect for the dignity and inviolability of the person in civil relations and additional civil remedies for the exercise of human autonomy in the field of medicine. The author proposes some civil remedies for the patient to exercise their absolute rights.
