Abstract

The practice of informed consent in health services in Indonesia is still often understood administratively, without a comprehensive understanding of the underlying ethical and legal foundations. This condition creates a gap between the moral obligations and legal responsibilities of health workers in providing services that are oriented towards patient rights. This study aims to analyze the legal responsibilities of healthcare professionals in implementing informed consent based on Law Number 17 of 2023 concerning Health, as well as to assess the alignment between legal norms and the ethical principles of the healthcare profession. The type of research used is a literature study with a legal-normative approach. Data were collected through a review of legislation, scientific literature, and professional codes of ethics, then analyzed using qualitative descriptive methods through normative analysis. The results of the study show that there is a stronger integration between the principles of patient autonomy, professional responsibility, and positive legal norms in the practice of informed consent. However, it is still necessary to strengthen ethical education, health law training, and the development of comprehensive national standard operating procedures (SOPs). The conclusion of the study emphasizes the importance of implementing informed consent that is not only formally legal but also ethically and humanistically dignified.
