Your Arizona Healthcare Choices
When you or a loved one have been injured or are ill, making healthcare decisions can seem overwhelming. Your doctor should make sure that you understand your choices. He or she should tell you about the recommended treatments and any reasonable alternatives. You should also be informed about the risks involved and the benefits of having the treatment done.
Based on this full understanding, you have the right to decide what health care you will have — or to refuse service. You have the right to fully participate in all the decisions related to your healthcare. If you can't communicate your wishes, Arizona law provides for an alternative — family or appointed guardians who can make decisions based on what you would have wanted.
