Abstract
When a medical accident happens there are instances where patients, their relatives or the bereaved sue for compensation and this is referred to as “medical conflict.” If a medical conflict, the patient's side goes to court and this is “medical litigation”. In a medical accident happened, there is an inquiry as to whether or not a civil act, and/or criminal act, and/or the administrative responsibility has been committed. The purpose of medical risk management is investigation into the cause, building a prevention system, and decreasing accidents.
