FOREWORD
The growing public awareness of health at this time has an impact on the increasing need of available resources, especially funds, which so far the economic sector associated with planning, implementation and evaluation in health services is still rarely or slightly gained attention. Economic sectors therefore need to be included in the planning, implementation and evaluation of the health sector through arrangements that provide certainty, benefit, and justice. In the sense that there is a harmonization between Law, Economiy and Health that provides Social Justice for Society.
Based on that thinking, Faculty of Law UNTAG Semarang on 29 - 30 January 2018 held an international conference as well as holding Call for paper, inviting scientists both in law, economy, and health at the national and international level with the theme of "Harmonization of Law, Economy and Health to Social Justice Society"

An online site (web page) reported a lot of events of „malpractice cases‟ in the field of health care.1 Regardless of the substantive truths of the news posted on such page, what is certain is that in health care, it is not impossible that there is a mistake or negligence committed by the healthcare provider.2 The problem is, mistakes in providing health care have a significant impact or risk considering the victim is human. Victims of mistakes in health care, in particular curativehealth care, can suffer from disability or even loss of life.
Therefore, discussing health care from the perspective of contract law becomes very important, as it relates directly to the health or even life of a person, who legally has specific rights and obligations in relation to the contract law itself. Indonesia has stipulated a Law concerning Health, enacted under No. 36 of 2009, (hereinafter referred to as the Health Law 2009).3 In this Law, the provision of proper health care is regulated.
The Health Law 2009 introduced 5 categories of health care, they are : promotive,4 preventive,5 curative,6 rehabilitative,7 and traditional health care. This paper mostly discusses about curative health care that is most directly related to contracts in the field of health care. However, this paper is not intended to discuss malpractice cases occurring in Indonesia. This article will talk more about the ideal of how contracts in the field of health care should not only be based on the principle of freedom of contract as taught in law faculty, but how humanitarian and justice ideas should become the main consideration in the formation and execution of those contracts.
Contract Law and Health Care in Indonesia
The doctrine of „freedom of contract‟ places the contracts in a sterile position from any social influences existing in the process of its formation and implementation.8 The jurists strongly believe that in the formation of a contract, such principle is the spirit of the contract itself. If the contracting parties have no freedom to contract, then the contract will be said to contain a defect, which does not qualify as a binding contract. In history, freedom of contract is related to the development of free market and the ideals of political economist.9 Economic freedom was desired at that time. Everyone wanted to be free in running any business activities, including to be free in determining what to do in the economic activities. In the legal order, the view was then manifested in the form of freedom to contract.

4 Promotive health care is an activity and / or a series of activities of health care prioritizing health promotion activities. See Article 1 point (12) of the Health Law 2009.
5Preventive health care is a preventive activity against a health problem / disease. See Article 1 point (13) of the Health Law 2009.
6Curative health care is an activity and / or a series of activities of treatmentaimed at the cure of disease, relief of disease- related suffers, disease control, or control of deformity so that the quality of the sufferer can be maintained optimally. See Article 1 point (14) of the Health Law 2009.
7Rehabilitative health careis anactivity and / or a series of activities to return the former sufferer backto the community that he/she can resume his/her functions as the member of the community who is useful for him/herself and the community to the best he/she is capable. See Article 1 point (15) of the Health Law 2009.
8This concept is especially followed by those who embrace the positiveism and legism ideology, which strongly holds to the normative content of the text of the law. The positiveism ideology holds that what becomes law is what is established as law by the legislator. Meanwhile, legism ideology holds that what constitutes as law is what is governed by the law.
9 P.S. Atiyah, The Rise and Fall of Freedom of Contract, (Oxford: Clarendon Press, 1979), p. 398. Atiyah deeply discusses the philosophical aspect of this principle of freedom of contract. See pages 219 – 304. Part II (The Age of Freedom of Contract) from the book mentioned above. The role of individualism ideologygreatly affects the formation of legal norms.

2What is interesting is that in Burgerlijk Wetboek (BW), such concept is not explicitly stated as a freedom from the parties to formulate a contract. The formulation used, among others, is as mentioned in Article 1321:
“there is no valid consent if such consent is given by mistake. or is obtained by violance extortion or by fraud”.10 In other words, BW does not explicitly state that one of the conditions for a legitimate contract is not the freedom to contract of the parties, but its negative formulation, that in the prepation of a contract there should be no mistake, violance extortion, and fraud.
Furthermore, the formulation of Article 1338 of BW which has so far been wrongly concluded, as if this article is the embodiment of the doctrine of freedom of contract, also not mentions a single word that states that the parties have the freedom to form a contract. The formulation of the article is somewhat revolving, i.e.
that “All vallid agreements apply to the individuals who have concluded them as law”.11 Meanwhile, all valid agreements refer to what is stipulated in Articles 1320 to 1337 of BW.
Article 1338 of BW is an affirmation that if a contract has been legally prepared, in the sense of fulfilling the conditions prescribed by law, then such contract is enforceable by the law. Instead, this article affirms that there is a limitation of freedom in its formation, that is, it must meet the requirements prescribed by law.
According to the Law, an agreement is valid if :12
(1) It is prepared by persons having legal capacity and authority to make an agreement. Elements of this legal capacity include : age (adults according to law), an ability to understand the legal consequences of an act (among others marked by mental health), and authority according to law.13
(2) In preparing such agreement there are no elements of fraud, mistake, and violance extortion. It means that there must be free will from the parties preparing the agreement. Any elements of fraud, mistake, and violance extortion will result in the disability in free will.14 This article specifically tries to formulate the doctrine of freedom of contract into a law.
(3) The object contracted must be a freely tradable, and clearly identifiable object, either in terms of type (goods or service) or size (quantity, volume, length, weight, etc.).15
(4) The agreement is not contrary to law, morals, and public order.16
The latter refers to the law, morals, and public order as elements that limit the freedom of the parties in making a contract. In other words, freedom becomes very conditional (being relative) because it must not violate the law, morality, and public order. In the context of a contract in the field of health care, such provision is very good considering the object of such contract is something related to health, safety, and even the lives of others. Agreements on health care, especially those that are curative, should not be built on the principle of freedom of contract alone, but they must meet the standards of safety and quality of care, in fact they should prioritize more on the safety of patients.17
In general, health care contracts are performed orally. Patients only come to the hospital or to a doctor they „know‟. They come to complain about their pain in the hope of getting an accurate diagnosis and getting a proper treatment. In the academic realm, the form and nature of such contracts are usually identified as informal and implied contracts. They are said to be informalbecause the law does not require certain formal or written forms. It is said implied because the contracted achievement clause is not expressed explicitly by the parties.18
10See the Civil Code, which is a translation of Burgerlijk Wetboek by Prof. R. Subekti and Tjitrosudibio. In the Dutch language is as follows: “Geene toestemming is van waarde, indien dezelve door dwaling is gegeven, door geweld afgeperst, of door bedrog verkregen”. SeeDe Wetboeken, Wetten en Verordeningen, Benevens de Grondwet van de Republiek Indonesie, (Jakarta: Ichtiar Baru – Van Hoeve, 1989), d/h/ Engelbrecht, p. 326.

12Article 1320 to Article 1337 of Burgerlijk Wetboek.
13Article 1329 of Burgerlijk Wetboek expressly states that all persons are deemed to have the authority or ability (legal capacity) to perform a legal act, unless the law otherwise provides. BW itself states that an immature person and a person who is placed under the capability otherwise can not perform a legal act. Furthermore, in the Limited Liability Company Law, it is expressly stated that the Board of Directors has the authorisation to represent the company. This means that any persons who are not members of the Board of Directors do not have the legal capacity to conduct legal actions on behalf of the company. Similarly, the CooperativesLaw, the Foundation Law, and even the Book of Commercial Law (KUHD) with respect to Firms, CV, and so forth..
14See Articles 1321 to 1328. These articles explain at length what the free will means. This term means that the word
“agree”does not necessarily means that the agreement becomes legitimate. Agree means that there is no element of mistake, violance extortion, and fraud. Even if a person has puttheir signature in the agreement document, not necessarily the agreement is valid and binds those who make it. Company Law addresses this issue at length.

3Specific achievements in curative health care contracts are generally more common in the part of doctors or hospitals. While the patients usually do not have too specific achievements. Patients‟ most important achievement is paying for medical expenses or treatment. In addition, they also provide correct and true information about how they feel, although this is not very significant, because there are also patients who have been unable to provide information because of their condition. Later on, in fact, the doctors who are obliged to diagnose what the illness suffered by the patient also unable to provide sub information. In addition, patients are also obliged to follow instructions, information, or procedures for the use of drugs or medical devices.19
In contrast, the obligations of Doctors and Hospitals are widely regulated, not only in the Code of Medical Ethics, but also in some laws relating to curative health care.20 Article 58 paragraph (1) of the Health Law 2009 explicitly states the rights of patients, include to demand compensation from any party providing health care which due to their mistake or negligence the patients suffer losses. To determine the mistake or negligence of health care providers, especially doctors, there are rules in the Medical Law 2004 regulated this matter, in particular Articles 44 and 45. In addition to those articles, the magnitude of such mistakes or negligence may also be determined by the Code of Medical Ethics. That is, if there are cases that cause harm to the patients, especially due to curative health care provided by the doctors, then if the mistakes can be proven, it can be determined that such doctors violate the Code of Medical Ethics in carrying out their profession.
Just for example, Article 14 of the Code of Medical Ethics states: “A doctor must be sincere and use all his knowledge and skills for the benefit of the patient, that when he is unable to perform an examination or treatment, upon the consent of his patient / family, he shall refer the patient to a doctor who has the expertise to do so”. This provision is very closely related to the issue of competence. A doctor in carrying out his profession must be based on his own scientific standards and skills (competence). If, in conducting curative health care, he was struck by the fact that he did not have the knowledge or skills related to the illness suffered by the patient, he should refer his patient to another more skilled doctor. There should be no elements of try and error.
Competence of doctors even become a major element that must be proven in advance by „prospective doctors‟ before they get a practice license. Article 44 of the Health Workers Law 2014 requires a Registration Certificate or Surat Tanda Registrasi (STR) for a doctor or other health worker who wishes to provide health care. To obtain such STR, a Certificate of Competence or a Certificate of Profession is required. These requirements are stipulated to further ensure that health care is actually performed by a competent doctor or healthcare provider.
In principal, the contract law, particularly the one relating to curative health care contracts, is not only governed by the principle of freedom of contract as is the doctrine of contract law itself. Contract law in the field of health care is heavily colored by the rules of the relevant law, the primary objective of which is the inner and outer health of the related parties, especially the patients. To better understand how legislative regulations in the field of health affect any contracts in the field of curative health care, the following describes how the State stipulate the provisions of law concerning health care.
Health Care According to Law in the Field of Health
There are at least three laws directly related to the health care system in Indonesia. The first is the Health Law 2009. Second, the Health Workers Law 2014, and the Medical Practice Law 2004. These three laws are followed by implementing regulations, and are still supplemented by the Code of Medical Ethics that is directly related to the standard of health care itself.
The Health Law 2009 regulates more about the State policy in the national health system, including with regard to health care systems that fall into two categories: individual health care and public health care. 21In the context of this article, the individual health care system set forth in this law more or less relates to individual health care contracts, that governs the relationship between a doctor or hospital with a patient. This is evident from the regulations set about the patient rights in relation to doctors and hospitals. At least this law becomes one of the legal sources governing contractual relations between patients and doctors and between patients and hospitals.

20Some of the laws in question are Law no. 36 Year 2009 concerning Health (Health Law 2009), Law no. 29 of 2004 concerning Medical Practice (Medical Law 2004), and Law no. 36 of 2014 concerning Health Workers (Health Workers Law 2014).
21Article 52 paragraph (1) of the Health Law.

4When contractual relationships between doctors and patients are more likely to arise through implied contracts, this law becomes an important source for determining essential clauses,22that should be stated in curative health care contracts, but not expressly stated by both parties. Furthermore, the Health Workers Law 2014, among others, regulates the competence and authority of doctors in conducting curative health care practices. For an example, about the Registration Certificate (STR) and Practice License (SIP) for health workers, including doctors.23 Competence of a doctor is an important element with regard to the contractual relationship between patients and such doctor. When a patient has placed so much confidence in the doctor to be able to cure his illness, without having to ask himself whether the doctor has the ability to do so, there should be a rule that ensures that the doctor really has the competencies required by such patient.
Meanwhile, the Medical Practice Law 2004 seeks to provide a regulatory basis for patient protection, quality improvement of medical services, and also to provide legal certainty for the community and for the doctors themselves.24 It is important to provide certainty to the doctors in the context of their roles in the field of curative health care. One of the most important is the standard of medical education, including for dentists, and regulations on the conduct of medical practice.25 Both are very important to be regulated, so that the doctors themselves understand what their rights and responsibilities are.
By the three laws as mentioned above, the contractual relationships between doctors and patients have sufficiently been regulated. At least to the aspect of the rights and obligations of both, which in practice have never been formulated explicitly in the curative health care agreements. In other words, in the context of curative health care, the relationship between doctors and patients is more likely to be regulated in health legislation than on the terms of the agreement between the two. It may be argued that the principle of freedom of contract does not entirely work in the contractual relationships in the field of curative health care. Even if there is a freedom, then such freedom is more prevalent in the patients, especially the freedom to choose certain doctors to whom they will seek treatment. Furthermore, after they choose, their position then becomes inferior to the doctors, since the specific achievements are then more prevalent in the doctors. That is why the law on consumer protection also talks a lot in relation to the relationship between doctors on the one hand and the patients as the customers.
Consumer Protection
As mentioned above that when patients comes to a hospital or to a doctor, they only think how to cure the illness they suffer. They never questions whether the hospital has the means and infrastructure to take care of them. They also never questions whether the doctorthey come to or who is appointed by the hospital really has the skills in doing the treatment for the illness they suffer.26
In curative health care practice, treatment service contracts have never been made in writing. Similarly with regard to what should be done by the doctors that was never beenpromised in such contracts. In the perspective of contract law, the understanding of “certain things” in the contractual relationships in the field of health care have really never been specifically agreed upon. The doctor's achievement known to the patient is simply “cure” the illness. It's very common. About what to do, how to do, how long it takes, even the measurable results are never promised. There was never a doctor who promised that the patient would be healed with the treatment he was taking. Even if there are doctors who promise so, it can be qualified as violating ethics, especially if it is associated with the amount of service payments concerned.
This “not certain” condition makes the patients‟ position a healthcare customers become very vulnerable.
That is why consumer protection laws are becoming highly relevant in the context of healthcare contracts.
Although health laws have been very helpful with the normative preconditions for curative health care, the enforcement process still requires some legal efforts. One of these legal efforts is by enforcinga consumer protection law. Patient is a curative health care consumer. While hospitals and doctors are “business actors”27 who provide services.
Although somewhat controversial and appears to beforcing the qualify doctors as “business actor”, but if the review is based on the relationship between curative health care providers and patients, it is not wrong to state that doctorsar service providers. Moreover, taking into account Article 4 point (a) stating that consumers
22Essence of contract means any condition or stipulation in a contract which is mutually understood and agreed by the parties to be a such of vital importance that a sufficient performance of the contract cannot be had without exact compliance with it is said to be „of the essence of the contract‟. See Black’s Law Dictionary, p. 546.

25See Chapters IV, V, and VII the Medical Practice Law 2004.
26In the Code of Medical Ethics it has also been stated that patients fully believe in the doctors. See the Preamble of the Code of Medical Ethics of 2012.
27It is somewhat controversial to qualify doctors as business actors, since the definition of business actors may not be applicable to the doctors. Article 1 point (3) of the Consumer Protection Law 1999 states that: “Business actor is an individual person or a company, in the form of a legal or non-legal entity established and domiciled or engaged in activities within the legal territory of the Republic of Indonesia, conducting various kinds of business activities in the economic sector through contracts, both individually and collectively”.

5have “the right to comfort, security and safety in consuming goods and / or services”, it is clear that a doctor is a party who, according to the Consumer Protection Law 1999, should provide services conveniently andsafely, and should ensure the patients safety.
On the other hand, doctors also have the right to obtain legal protection in their efforts to provide curative health care.28 This protection is, among others, regulated through arrangements on standard procedures to be complied with, for example about STR, SIP, informed consent, exceptions in life-saving efforts, and so on.29 STR and SIP are associated with the authority that doctors have in providing curative health care. Prior informed consent relates to the procedures for certain actions which, when approved by the patient or the patient's family, in some way relieve or reduce the burden of liability on the doctor's shoulders. These may affect the enforcement of consumer protection, when patients experience certain events related to the implementation of curative health care.
The Consumer Protection Law 1999 affirms that business actors, who in this context may be doctors and hospitals, have the following obligations :30
1. to act in good faith in conducting the business;
2. to provide correct, clear end honest information with regard to the condition and warranty of the goods and/or services and provide explanation on the use, repair and maintenance;
3. to treat and serve the consumers properly and honestly and nondiscriminatively;
4. to guarantee the quality of goods and/or services produced andor traded based on the prevailing quality standard provisions of the goods and/or services;
5. to provide the opportunity to the consumers to test and or/try on certain goods and/or services and provide warranty and/or guarantee on the produced and/or traded goods;
6. to provide compensation, indemnification and/or substitution for the damages caused by the use, consumption and application of the goods and/ or services;
7. to provide compensation, indemnification and/or substitution if the goods and / or services received or used do not accord with the agreement.
Items (1) and (3) are closely related to ethics. Doctors must be ethical. One form of ethical manifestation is that doctors in providing services should not be affected with bad or reprehensible motives. The main intention is to cure. Item (2) requires the doctors to be honest and provide clear information to the patients about their illness and treatment measures. This relates to the patients‟ right as mentioned in Article 4.c of the Consumer Protection Law 1999, and Article 56 paragraph (1) of the Health Law 2009, which reads :
“Everyone shall be entitled to accept or reject part or entire aid measures to provide to them after receiving and understanding the information concerning such measures completely”. This article also deals with the prior informed consent doctrine.31
Item (4) relates to the competence of the doctors. While it is not possible to ensure that the doctors‟
actions can cure the patient's illness, at least the doctors must be confident that they have the competence and authority to provide the intended health care. The beliefs here relate to both administrative and substantive aspects. The administrative aspect refers to administrative requirements such as STR and SIP and the like, i.e.
whether or not the doctors have fulfilled them. While the substantive aspect refers to the competence the doctors have, whether or not they can make a diagnosis and medical treatment correctly to patients who seek treatment.
Item (5) relates to the standard of curative health care concerned. Among other things, the selection of certain drugs that should be consumed by patients. Of course, it is not the patients who have to prove whether or not the drugs are suitable, but on the basis of science or any known research findings, is it appropriate for such certain drugs to be consumed by the patients? Sometimes there is a doctor who immediately gives the harshest drug for a particular type of illness, so that in time even the patient is unfavorable, for example, the patient becomes immune to more “low” drugs.
Items (6) and (7) relate to the possibility of mistakes or negligence by the doctors concerned. In practice, it is rare that anyone directly admits his mistakes or negligence. This article is an important basis for enforcing the law, especially in protecting patients from a doctor‟s mistakes or negligence in providing curative health care.
The provisions concerning patient protection drawn from the above mentioned Consumer Protection Law are important legal sources in relation to vulnerable or weak patient positions. These rules provide a basis for a patient to do something (legal actions) when he suffers a loss due to curative health care not as it should be.
However, it does not mean that all consumers will take legal action when they are harmed by a doctor. There
