End of Life Option Act Update (September 2017)
What are we learning? What's ahead?
The End of Life Option Act (EoLOA) was enacted in June 2016. A year later, we’re looking at both hard data released by the California Department of Public Health and information provided to us by health care providers, systems, and patients.
In this webinar, Lael Duncan, MD, medical director at Coalition for Compassionate Care of California (CCCC), will be covering the information California has so far: what we’ve learned, what’s starting to become clear, and what questions are coming up as the law matures.
