The confinement is the extra judicial measure for which the doctor may be criminally prosecuted for wrongful confinement.

Mr barman is right . doctor cannot confine you for non payment of bills. at most he can file suit for recovery of amount spent on your treatment

All our experts are correct. even after confinement doc can be prosecuted for wrongful confinement and a Writ of Hebeas Corpus can be filed for thr person confined to make him present before the court.

While no Doctor can confine one for payment of his fee, he has a right to get the same recovered by due process of law.
