Opinion Piece Defends End-of-Life Care Options Law
In an opinion piece, Barbara Coombs Lee -- president of Compassion and Choice, a not-for-profit that focuses on end-of-life care and choice -- defends the recently enacted Terminal Patients' Right to Know End-of-Life Options Act. She writes, "The Right to Know Act specifically ensures that patients who ask will become aware of their condition and receive the most appropriate care for whatever time they have left."
