Objectives:
The goal of article is to identify civil aspects of patient consent, which should provide the answer to eligibility of application civil statute to this consent.

Material and methods:
The subject of this article is an attempt to conduct a theoretical and legal analysis of the statutory requirement to obtain consent from an authorized entity to provide health care services from the point of view of civil law structural elements creating contractual obligations.

Results:
From the perspective of civil law, the patient's consent to undergo the treatment process contains more normative content than the creation of a countertype that eliminates the illegality of violating personal rights. Taking into account the contemporary model of a patient who is aware and has comprehensive information about the planned treatment, which is partly due to the assumptions adopted under the Act of 6 November 2008 on patient rights and the Patient Rights Ombudsman, the consent granted by the patient, treated as a declaration of will, brings to the created legal act a specific content regarding the form of the service and contractual obligations. Hence, it seems advisable to analyze the patient's consent not only from the point of view of public law requirements, but also from the perspective of the rules of consensus and volitional theories of declarations of will and legal acts.

Conclusions:
The issue in question requires further in-depth analysis, taking into account in particular the developing sector of commercial medical services, which is based on the principle of freedom of contract, and the content of the contractual obligation is entirely determined by the will of the parties.
