Practice of medicine does not involve its curative aspect alone only, but also it is concerned with its legal nee medicolegal aspect relating to (a) doctor-patient relationship, (b) doctor-doctor relationship, (c) doctor-state relationship in relation to the duties of a doctor, obligation to his patients apart from legal aspect of medical practice including infamous conduct, medical negligence, malpractices, etc. State medicine envisages proper code of conduct of registered medical practitioners to guide and regulate their professional activities, to protect the community at large from quacks and charlatans against malpractice.
