NYS BILL PASSED ON LANDMARK LEGISLATION TO IMPROVE PATIENT SAFETY
Senator Kemp Hannon, Chair of the Senate Health Committee said: “The patient/physician relationship is founded on trust. When a doctor fails to fulfill his or her professional obligations, as has recently been the case, that trust is violated and a patient’s perception of the entire medical community can be forever skewed. While I am 100 percent confident in the abilities of health care providers throughout the state, this bill is a necessary first step toward restoring the public’s faith in a medical profession which, due to the actions of a few, has been fractured.”
