Managed care organizations provide coverage for approved treatments with low out-of-pocket costs for patients and encourage preventative care. Group medical practices share liability. HIPAA regulates privacy of protected health information and medical practice acts protect patients from unqualified providers. Common bioethical issues involve reproductive technologies and end-of-life care. Maintaining professionalism, confidentiality, and obtaining informed consent reduces litigation risks.
The New York Health Care Proxy Law allows you to appoint someone you trust — for example, a family member or close friend – to make health care decisions for you if you lose the ability to make decisions yourself.

CHAPTER 9 CONSENT
Consent is an ethical imperative of great importance to managers and clinicians. It is clear that patients want to be more involved in medical decision making. The issues that consent raises suggest both a problem and a goal for health services providers.
The concept of consent in medical care evolved to protect patients from nonconsensual touching. Although the ethical and legal dimensions overlap, the legal requirements of consent are the minimum expected. The ethics of consent are grounded in the principle of respect for persons, specifically the element of autonomy, which reflects a view of the equality and dignity of human beings. In addition, the ethics of consent reflect the special relationship of trust and confidence between physician and patient and between organization and patient. This fiduciary relationship is supported by the principles of beneficence and nonmaleficence. The manager's virtues of trustworthiness, honesty, integrity, and candor also support the ethics of consent.
According to the law, failure to obtain consent can support a legal action for battery, an intentional tort. Beyond this, an action for negligence can be brought if the physician breaches the duty to communicate information necessary for the patient to give informed consent.
Paternalism stems from beneficence and is the ethical value that competes with patient autonomy in implementing consent. Paternalism arises naturally from the relationship between physician and patient because psychologically, technically, and emotionally, the physician is in a position of superior knowledge and is expected to help choose the best course of action for the patient. This reflects the ethics of care discussed in Chapter 1. The paternalism inherent in the physician–patient relationship was first described in the Hippocratic oath. Beneficence, nonmaleficence, and paternalism continue to be important and are implicit elements of the practice of medicine. The revisions of the Principles of Medical Ethics adopted by the American Medical Association (AMA) in 1980 moved organized medicine from paternalism toward autonomy and patient rights, themes that continued in the 2001 revision. The AMA's Council on Ethical and Judicial Affairs amplified these themes in its Fundamental Elements of the Patient–Physician Relationship statement. This document and the 2001 Principles of Medical Ethics are reproduced in Appendix B.
Specialized codes that guide biomedical research (e.g., the Declaration of Helsinki) also recognize the importance of consent. The emphasis on patients' rights or sovereignty in documents such as these are ideals toward which managers and organizations should strive.
LEGAL ASPECTS
Legally, consent must be voluntary, competent, and informed. The law presumes that persons unable to give consent in an emergency want to receive treatment. The presumption of wanting treatment can be rebutted if a competent patient declines it or if the person requiring ...

1.Katrina- In my opinion the court decision is warranted because, doctors are not obligated to disclose to patients “miracle treatments” or any drug or treatment not yet approved by the FDA. Now there are cases where FDA approved drugs have been used in specific treatments that isn’t approved for that particular drug this is called “off label drugs”. The use of non-FDA approve medicines increases the physician chance of medical malpractice liability. These particular drugs and/or treatment were illegal and not approved by the FDA in the patient state of resident for a reason. Non-FDA approved prescription drugs may present a significant threat to individuals seeking care since these drugs most certainly has not endured evaluation by the FDA for “safety, effectiveness or quality” (FDA.gov). If the FDA did not evaluate drugs, there wouldn’t be any means to determine if these medicines are harmless and beneficial for use. The FDA also evaluates to make certain that prescription drugs are formulated in a way that the drug quality is consistent and if the drugs label is absolute and accurate. FDA unapproved drugs have ensued in injury to the patient. The FDA focus on protecting patients from the injuries associated with non-approved drugs. These standards are put in place to protect both the patient and the physician.
The treating physician need not to be held accountable for not advising patients of treatment options that are illegal or not successfully proven because, technically these treatment options are not available to the patient. The informed consent doctrine requires the physician to inform the patient of the benefits, inherent, material risks, and alternatives of a medical intervention. “The doctrine of informed consent is the legal basis for informed consent and is usually outlined in a state’s medical practice acts” (Judson, K 2020). Informed consent entails the patient’s right to receive all pertinent information in relation to the condition and then to make a decision regarding treatment based on that knowledge. (Judson, K 2020). The informed consent doctrine does not include disclosure for illegal treatments or illegal prescription drugs. “The physician's obligation is to give medical facts accurately to the patient and to make recommendations for management in accordance with good medical practice” (AMA 2010). Disclosing illegal treatment options or even illegal prescription drugs do not fall under good medical practices and the physician should not be held responsible for not disclosing this information.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.
