According to the American Medical Association Principles
According to the American Medical Association Principles of Medical Ethics for physicians, “a physician shall respect the rights of patients.” If patients have a right to confidentiality, does that mean according to this provision of the AMA’s Principles that physicians can never disclose to others, including law officials, medical information concerning their patients? a. Yes, this is what is implied by the provision b. No, the provision says that physicians are obligated to safeguard confidentiality only within the constraints of the law. As a statement of their Health System Reform Agenda (2008), the American Nursing Association declared that the “ANA remains committed to the principle that health care is a human right and that all persons are entitled to ready access to affordable, high-quality health care service. According to the provision #IX of the American Medical Association Principles of Medical Ethics for physicians, “a physician shall support access to medical care for all people.” Do you think the AMA agrees in principle with the ANA’s reform agenda? Why or Why not? a. Yes it does because both the ANA and the AMA provisions are seeking the same outcome, i.e. medical care for all people b. No, the two provisions are different: the ANA code asserts that health care should be a human right but the AMA does not.
