Assignment:

According to what you've read and learned about patient rights, do you think assisted suicide should be a legal option for terminal patients? Why?
What type of health information do you think should be considered in the determination of whether assisted suicide should be an option?
In states that legalize assisted suicide, one serious issue is that it creates an incentive for insurance companies to deny terminally ill patients coverage. In many cases, it is far cheaper to cover physician assisted death than to cover expensive and prolonged treatments for terminal diseases. For patients that live in these states, discuss what you think could be done to ensure insurance companies have the patient's best interests in mind.
