Medical disputes have been increasing in recent years in China, which cause growing tension between doctors and patients. In many locations, it has started as a practice of exploring diversified dispute settlement methods. Great importance has been attached to the non-lawsuit model through third-party mediation, which might have been led by professional organizations, insurance companies, People's Mediation Committees, or three-level governmental authorities. Those have contributed to a rapid effective resolution of medical disputes. However, there are some deficiencies that need to be addressed and fixed up, thus calling for improvement, such as the lack of a sustainable supporting mechanism, unclear legal status of the mediation institutions and mediation agreements, patching up a quarrel by only compensation.
近年来,中国的医疗纠纷不断增加,这导致医患关系日益紧张。在许多地方,已经开始探索多元化的纠纷解决方式。第三方调解的非诉讼模式受到高度重视,这种调解可能由专业组织、保险公司、人民调解委员会或三级政府部门主导。这些措施有助于快速有效地解决医疗纠纷。然而,仍存在一些需要解决和完善的不足之处,因此需要改进,比如缺乏可持续的支持机制、调解机构和调解协议的法律地位不明确、仅通过赔偿来平息争端。
