These are civil, criminal and diciplinair medical cases, and due to the multy natures of such cases, we are likely to see numerous authorities to them. Furthermore, here expert medical expertise and expert opinion play an important role, but the rules are somewhat conflicting. In line with this multiplicity of lawsuits, the legislator has foreseen numerous authorities for medical claims. However, both the knowledge of these authorities and the nature of the claims within their jurisdiction are required and at the end it is recommended that a specific authority should be made to address these claims.
