Arbitration in medicine is a form of alternative dispute resolution that involves the use of an impartial third party to resolve conflicts between healthcare providers and patients. There are many forms of Alternative Dispute Resolution like Arbitration, Mediation, conciliation, and Lok Adalat. This process can be voluntary or mandated by law and can be used to resolve a variety of disputes, including malpractice claims, insurance coverage disputes, and contractual disputes. The use of alternative Dispute Resolution in medicine has become increasingly common in recent years to avoid the time, expense, and uncertainty associated with traditional litigation. Proponents argue that Alternative Dispute Resolution can be more efficient, cost-effective, and fair than traditional litigation, and can result in quicker resolution of disputes. Critics of Alternative Dispute Resolution in medicine argue that it can be biased against patients, and can limit their ability to seek redress for medical malpractice. They also argue that Alternative Dispute Resolution agreements can be coercive, particularly when patients are required to sign them as a condition of receiving medical care. Alternative Dispute Resolution helps in fast dispute settlement and by doing this, it reduces the overburden of the Indian courts and serves quick justice as justice delayed is justice denied. Despite these concerns, Alternative Dispute Resolution in medicine continues to be used as a tool for resolving disputes in the healthcare industry. As the field continues to evolve, new forms of Alternative Dispute Resolution will likely emerge, and the role of arbitration in healthcare disputes will continue to be debated.
