The Medical Ethics Committee of the Supreme Medical Council continues its work on the historic amendment of the Code of Medical Ethics. The latest proposed amendment is the revision of Article 7 of the KEL. What does it concern?
The proposal prepared by the NRL's KEL Committee to amend Art.7. reads:
In particularly justified cases, a doctor may not undertake or abandon treatment of a patient, except in cases of danger of loss of life, serious bodily injury or serious disorder of health. When not undertaking or withdrawing from treatment, the doctor must indicate to the patient another possibility of obtaining medical assistance, and inform the patient of the urgency of taking advantage of this possibility.Content locked
