Reference no: EM133692300

Question

Laws and regulations have been created to protect patient autonomy and ensure informed consent in response to ethical violations. For instance, the Belmont Report, which was published in 1979, established ethical guidelines for research involving human subjects. These guidelines include the principles of respect for persons (which encompasses informed consent), beneficence, and justice. Additionally, the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA), enacted in 1996, contains provisions to safeguard patient privacy and ensure informed consent for the use of personal health information. In the U.S., the Office for Human Research Protections is responsible for ensuring compliance with these guidelines.
