Modern medicine has become more advanced, more technological, and more interconnected than ever before.
Yet when harm occurs, responsibility is no longer easy to define.
A patient may suffer because of delayed diagnosis, poor communication, understaffing, algorithmic bias, software failure, institutional overload, fragmented care, or the combined effect of multiple small errors occurring across complex systems. In many cases, no single individual is fully responsible — and no traditional model of liability is sufficient to explain what happened.
LIABILITY IN MODERN HEALTHCARE explores the new architecture of medical responsibility in an era shaped by artificial intelligence, digital systems, telemedicine, biotechnology, institutional failure, corporate influence, and increasingly complex healthcare environments.
Combining medicine, law, ethics, governance, and systems analysis, this book examines how responsibility is distributed across professionals, hospitals, regulators, insurers, technologies, and institutions.
From clinical error and informed consent to cybersecurity, pandemics, algorithmic bias, cross-border care, and the future of healthcare governance, this work offers a rigorous and compelling examination of one of the most urgent questions in modern medicine:
