Law

Nastasia [14]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

The legal parameters for patient rights are set by HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1966).

The laws give the patient some bills of rights, which cannot be denied to any person of sound mind.

These rights include the right to be treated respectfully and without discrimination, rights of privacy and personal access to medical records, rights of treatment refusal and choice, and the right to informed consent.

Explanation:

These patient rights ensure that Dr. S and Dr. V practice medicine ethically.  They cannot divulge a patient's medical information without her consent.  Every treatment and test to be administered to the patient must go with her consent.  Dr. S and Dr. V cannot deny the patient access to her medical records.  They are also not permitted to transfer her medical records to another person or institution without the patient's authorization.  Dr. S and Dr. V must discuss the treatment and test, including any other information with the patient, to obtain her full consent before taking any action.  They cannot bill the patient without discussing the cost of treatment.

Southern states objected to the 14th amendment because it granted citizenship to former slaves who had been freed by the Civil W
navik [9.2K]

Answer:

hey mari!!

Explanation:

On July 28, 1868, the 14th Amendment to the United States Constitution was ratified. The amendment grants citizenship to "all persons born or naturalized in the United States" which included former slaves who had just been freed after the Civil War. The amendment had been rejected by most Southern states but was ratified by the required three-fourths of the states. Known as the "Reconstruction Amendment," it forbids any state to deny any person "life, liberty or property, without due process of law" or to "deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws."

Other groups tried to use the 14th Amendment to further their causes. Women attempted to use it to proclaim their right to vote, and African Americans tried to use it as well. On May 18, 1896, the Supreme Court ruled in the case of Plessy v. Ferguson that "separate but equal" facilities were considered sufficient to satisfy the 14th Amendment. It wasn't until May 17, 1954, however, that the Court reversed the Plessy decision, bringing the era of government-sanctioned segregation to an end.

It was the 15th Amendment, ratified in 1870, which finally gave African Americans the right to vote. It states that "the right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any state on account of race, color, or previous condition of servitude." In practice, however, it took almost 100 more years and the passage of the Voting Rights Act of 1965 to remove barriers such as poll taxes, literacy tests, and intimidation that prevented African Americans and other people of color from freely exercising their right to vote. Note that the 15th amendment makes no mention of sex. It was not until the passage of the 19th Amendment in 1920 that women were explicitly given the vote.
