Sometimes health-care providers with information about family members’ genetic risk are confronted by conflicting ethical princi
ples. Which principle is least likely to conflict with the health-care provider’s "duty to warn"? A. Right to privacy
B. Beneficence
C. Autonomy
D. Genetic discrimination
Genetic discrimination is treating some family member or friend or employee differently because he or she had some genetic mutation which increases the risk of getting an inherited disorder. This is the least likely conflict faced by the healthcare providers with information about family members.
However, they may have the conflict that they should or should not tell other family members about the genetic risk because of patient's right to privacy. Beneficence is doing the right thing i.e. telling the patient that they must disclose this genetic disease to their sexual partners. Autonomy is respecting the patient's right to decide if they want disclosure or wanted to go into some treatment procedure.
