First-in-Nation Bill To End Secrecy Around Doctor Sexual Assault and Other Patient Harm Passes CA Legislature
First-in-Nation Bill To End Secrecy Around Doctor Sexual Assault and Other Patient Harm Passes CA LegislatureCalifornia would be the first state in the nation to mandate doctors tell their patients when they are disciplined for sexual assault or other patient harm under legislation that passed the Assembly and Senate today and goes to Governor Brown’s desk.
SB 1448, the Patient Right to Know Act authored by Senator Jerry Hill (D-San Mateo), would require a doctor on probation for causing patient harm in one of four categories – sexual misconduct with a patient, overprescribing, criminal conviction or drug and alcohol use – to disclose that fact to his or her patient before an appointment. This was the third year Senator Hill proposed legislation to lift the veil of secrecy that prevents patients from learning of doctors’ misconduct.
