Artificial intelligence is changing healthcare. What does the law say about it?

Artificial intelligence is changing healthcare. What does the law say about it?

Artificial intelligence is penetrating healthcare faster than many admit. It can accelerate diagnosis, improve doctors' decision-making, and make top-quality care accessible even where specialists are lacking. At the same time, however, it raises questions that the legal framework must address: who will bear responsibility for damage caused by an algorithm, how to set up oversight of its decision-making, and how to safely handle sensitive patient data? European AI regulation already brings concrete rules and healthcare facilities must adapt to them. This article therefore focuses on key legal aspects of using artificial intelligence in medicine – from regulation and personal data protection to liability for damages.

Fruitless enforcement proceedings | Tereza Veselá

Fruitless enforcement proceedings | Tereza Veselá

Since 2023, legal regulations for terminating so-called fruitless enforcement proceedings have been in effect. According to these regulations, enforcement proceedings will be terminated if no partial collection of the obligation has occurred within 6 years of the enforcement duration. The creditor can prevent this termination by expressing disagreement with the termination and depositing an advance payment for enforcement costs into the bailiff's account. However, such extension is only possible once. If no partial collection of the obligation occurs within 12 consecutive years, the fruitless enforcement will be terminated even without the creditor's consent.

"Legislation is changing at an enormous pace today" | Soňa Rampulová | e15 |  interview

"Legislation is changing at an enormous pace today. In an environment where every sector is affected by some regulation, the ability to read between the lines of laws becomes a competitive advantage," states Soňa Rampulová. Understanding legislation is so difficult, especially in Europe, that not only entrepreneurs and managers often struggle, but lawyers as well. This is one of the reasons why she initiated the creation of the Next Generation Legal Business Club, where these professions meet regularly.
