IMPLICATIONS OF EXPANDING HOSPITAL LEGAL LIABILITY ON THE QUALITY OF HEALTH SERVICES
Keywords:
Implications, Expansion of Legal Liability, Hospitals, Quality of Health ServicesAbstract
The expansion of hospitals' legal responsibilities plays an important role in improving the quality of healthcare services. With greater accountability, hospitals are encouraged to implement higher standards of care, comply with regulations, and ensure patient safety and satisfaction. However, it can also add administrative burdens and pressure on hospital resources, which if managed inefficiently, can hamper flexibility and innovation. Therefore, the successful implementation of expanded legal responsibility relies heavily on effective management to ensure that increased accountability is directly proportional to improved quality of care without compromising operational efficiency.
