The legal relationship between patient and physician is legally equal relationship. But, in times past, patients be compelled to sign an unequal contract, substantially. Because of the imbalance between supply and demand in the health care market. Today, the law of supply and demand in the health care market is running well. And as the cognition of citizens' rights grows, the relationship between patient and physician can also get a lot of changes. Patients have the right to know the information about medical care, and to decide whether or not to get treatment including invasions against their own bodies. In other words, Doctors have an obligation to explain to their patients. If doctors did not provide patients sufficient explanation or information, it violates the right of patients. This is a tort, or a breach of contract. To improve the remedy for violation of patient's right, patient is able to be protected by status as consumer. If patient is a kind of consumer in terms of medical consumption, he/she as consumer can enjoy supplementally the consumer's right. The patient as a consumer can exercise now a consumer's right as a constitutional right. In addition, with respect to consumer's rights, Framework Act on Consumers was enacted. This Act is based on constitutional provisions of Article 124 and the Act can be seen as a law that embodies consumer right because the provision of the constitutional law delegates specific contents. In the health care field, patients need to win recognition the statue of the consumer to hold the sovereignty of the consumer. In particular, if patients are consumers, they may be able to make good use of the quickly and efficiently collective dispute resolution and association lawsuit to rescue their damage, the Alternative Dispute Resolution(ADR) of Framework Act on Consumers.

연구배경: 방사선이용 및 원자력발전의 외향적 성장에 비해 국민이 우려하는 건강권, 환경권, 안전권, 알권리, 발전권, 생존권 등 기본권과의 관계 분석은 전무한 상태이다. 재료 및 방법: 방사선 및 원자력 관련 실정법 내용을 가능한 높은 수준의 권리보장이라는 최대주의적 관점에서 다수의 기본권 분석을 통해 삶의 질 향상을 위한 법률적 보완 방안을 도출하였다. 결과 및 논의: 한국 헌법에 방사선 및 원자력발전과 직접 관계된 기본권 내용은 최소한 12개 조항으로 다수의 권리와 관계된다. 방사선 및 원자력관련 실정법 14종에 헌법적 기본권이 다양한 조항으로 모두 반영되어 있다. 다수의 기본권이 함께 적용된 방사선 및 원자력 관련 실정법은 인간 삶의 질 향상 목적에서 생존권을 우선으로 한 건강권, 환경권, 알권리, 안전권이 작동되어야 하는 것인지, 생존권, 건강권, 환경권, 알권리, 안전권이 같은 크기로 작동되어야 하는 것인지에 대한 상대적 우위에 대해서는 신중한 결정이 필요하고, 인간영역에서 단시간에 평가하기에는 어려운 문제이다. 결론: 원자력, 방사선의 이용증진 측면과 위험 리스크 발생방지 측면 두 가지 목표를 동시에 조화롭게 추구해야 하는 정책은 우리나라 입장에서는 중요한 일이고, 권리 간 조화를 위해 올바른 가치판단이 필요하다.
