Saratov State Medical University named after V.I. Razumovsky
Modern information technologies create essentially new opportunities for medicine. Their introduction in health care practice promptly changes both ways of diagnostics and treatment, and a form of interaction of doctors with patients and with each other, the treatment and recovery of health organization. Application of modern information technologies in space of medicine leads to emergence of new social institutes and communication models, revision of traditional system of values, improvement of quality of human life. At present it is possible to speak about system changes in the medicine sphere which demand a scientific reflection. The E-medicine opens unique opportunity for development of public health care. In spite of the fact that accurate definition of the term still isn't present, researchers come to mutual understanding, meaning by E-medicine everything that is connected with use of network information technologies in medicine. In a broad sense we can define E-medicine as system of social and economic relations that formed as a result of use of network information technologies in medicine and representing absolutely new information and communication space interactions in which, are carried out in three main directions: 1) medical institution (the medical worker) - the patient; 2) medical institution (the medical practioner) - medical institution (the medical practioner); 3) the patient - the patient.
E-medicine as object of legal policy required analyzing on ground of philosophical dialectic method of knowledge, general scientific group of formal and logical methods, system approach and the structurally functional analysis, and also special scientific methods of law -comparative and legal methods, allowing to consider E-medicine as object of the right and legal policy.
The sphere of E-medicine needs carrying out the adequate legal policy directed on optimization of processes of integration of E-medicine in system of e-health care. The specification of doctrinal bases, legal fixing of basic bioethical principles as a basis of legal statuses of subjects of medical legal relationship in E-medicine has to become the first step to its creation.
Key words: E-medicine, public law policy, information technologies
