Definition: bệnh nhân là bị đơn, bị cáo hay bị can.
A more thorough explanation: The term “defendant-patient” refers to an individual who is the subject of a legal action or lawsuit, typically in the context of a medical malpractice case, where the individual is both the defendant in the legal proceedings and the patient who received medical treatment or care that is being called into question.
Example: In the case of Smith v. Jones, the defendant-patient argued that the medical treatment provided by the plaintiff-doctor was negligent and caused further harm.
