The article examines theoretical and practical aspects of civil liability as a tool for ensuring the safety of medical services. The grounds for the emergence of contractual and tort liability of medical organizations are analyzed, with particular attention paid to the problems of proving damage, causation, and fault. A study of the regulatory framework and judicial practice revealed inconsistencies between medical law and consumer protection legislation. Based on these findings, proposals were developed to optimize judicial practice and reduce legal threats to medical institutions.
