The Right needs to stop spreading lies if they want to be part of the solution and so does the Left. The Right continues to state that the Living Will provision is mandatory. Well, guess what??????????
The government currently requires hospitals to ask adult patients if they have a living will, or "advance directive." If the patient doesn't have one, and wants one, the hospital has to provide assistance. The mandate on hospitals was instituted during a Republican administration, in 1992, under President George H.W. Bush.
There is NO requirement for a living will under the new plan according to Monsignor Charles Fahey, 76, a Catholic priest who is chairman of the board of the National Council on Aging, a nonprofit service and advocacy group.
Fahey said, "We have to make decisions that are deliberative about our health care at every moment . What I have said is that if I cannot say another prayer, if I cannot give or get another hug, and if I cannot have another martini — then let me go."
