Abstract
The essay analyzes the role of the healthcare agent in some European civil law and common law legal systems. The comparative analysis will highlight the peculi- arities of the regulation of this institute in each of the jurisdictions examined, which assigns the healthcare agent the delicate task of interacting with physicians if the pa- tient is incapable of deciding on medical treatments. The powers proper of the “Be- treuer” in Germany, the “Attorney” in England, and the “Personne de confiance” in France do not coincide perfectly with the Italian comparable, configuring a different legislative balance between patient’s autonomy and physicians’ will.
