Nursing Act, then Medical Technician Act...the 'solo practice' debate reignited

Hanbyol Law LLC attorneys summarized the key legal issues in the "solo practice" controversy that has sparked the nursing law and the medical technician law, and provided strategies for response. Hanbyol Attorneys pointed out that solo practice can lead to a conflict between constitutional freedom of profession and public healthcare safety, and recommended preparing legal responses such as lawsuits, provisional injunctions, and constitutional court cases, focusing on the interpretation of the scope of licensure, the limits of delegation of administrative regulations, and the possibility of unconstitutionality. In addition, they said that they conducted advisory activities to minimize risks at the legislative stage by reviewing the specific texts of the mediation plan between stakeholders and the enforcement and implementation regulations.

Regarding the pending social dialogue on delivery apps, Hanbyol's lawyers advised on the contractual relationship between platforms and merchants, the criteria for determining dominant position and unfair trade practices under the Fair Trade Act, and the risk of administrative penalties and penalties. In light of the increasing regulatory pressure amidst the delayed discussions due to the political schedule, we suggested practical measures such as preparing standard contracts, preparing for administrative lawsuits, and establishing policy response strategies, and provided legal support for stakeholder negotiations.
