Advance directives, durable powers of attorney, palliative care and hospice care are just some of the options that are in state law. For more than three decades, myriad versions of medical aid in dying (MAID) bills have been submitted to the legislature, and while other end of life options have been approved and enhanced, MAID was, appropriately, not added to state law. Previous legislatures were clear that they did not want to add this alternative until there had been significant opportunity to evaluate the experiences in other states. Oregon was the first state to adopt MAID, in 1998, followed by nine other states and the District of Columbia, so there are now almost three decades of experience in the United States. That experience is particularly relevant because, while other countries may have laws addressing end of life matters, their constitutions, laws, and culture differ from ours. This bill is very narrowly focused. It limits eligibility to those who have had two independent evaluations by medical professionals who have concluded that the individual is terminally ill with likely six months or less to live. These medical professionals must advise the patient of all other care alternatives, including palliative care and hospice. They must assess that the patient is mentally competent, and physically able to administer the medication themselves. They must establish that the patient is not being unduly influenced by others - whatever their relationship to the patient. It is not available to those with painful, debilitating diseases but for whom there is no expectation of death in six months or less. There are specific reporting requirements and penalties for misuse or noncompliance. The committee hearings identified several areas where the bill could be improved, and these have all been addressed in the proposed committee amendment. We eliminated the role of physician assistants and clarified the role of pharmacists. While concerns have been raised by some members of the disability community, Disability Rights Oregon reported very few complaints, all of which focused on the concern that the Oregon Act might discriminate against persons with disabilities who would seek to make use of the Act but have disabilities that would prevent self-administration, thereby denying those persons to use the act. The Executive Director of Disability Rights Oregon states that never to his knowledge has a complaint come forward that a person with disabilities was coerced to make use of the Act. Many of those who qualify and have received the necessary prescriptions do not fill the prescriptions, but they or their families report that they were comforted by the knowledge that they could take control of their own end of life. These are people who want to live, but are destined to die in a very short time and want to die peacefully, with their family and friends able to be with them to honor their life. There is no substantiated correlation between medical aid in dying and suicide. Suicide is a public health and medical crisis that requires collective efforts to address. Suicide is frequently violent, carried out in isolation, frequently by those with unresolved mental health crises. Those who choose MAID are terminally ill and would much prefer to live, but, destined to die soon, would choose to die peacefully. This alternative is likely to be considered by very few, and acted on by even fewer. But it adds one alternative that, even just knowing it exists, can increase the quality of the end of life options addressing end of life matters.

Walter Stapleton", "committee": "Judiciary", "text": "The minority holds that this bill for medically-assisted suicide will have far-reaching harmful effects on our culture by messaging that ending one's life in suicide for diagnosed terminal illness is acceptable, and thereby may be interpreted by vulnerable, infirm or elderly persons that perhaps there are other severe or justifiable health or quality of life issues that might be considered down the road for that \"end-of-life option.\" Problems have already been reported in Canada, Netherlands, Switzerland, and some other European countries, as well as some of the 10 US states currently having assisted suicide laws. This is a dangerous door to creeping expansion and blurring the line to euthanasia, by normalizing or validating suicide. We already have a frightening problem with increasing suicide among teens, the gay community, depressed and troubled people and veterans suffering from PTSD and the trauma of war. The darkness of this practice reaches beyond a lawful sanction: There are people with serious and even terminal illness beyond the six-months criteria who yet cling to life and want as much time as possible with their family and for their final affairs. That of course means additional medical expenses to \"buy time.\" What happens when health insurers may weigh authorization between treatments costing thousands or tens of thousands against a prescription of only a few hundred or thousand dollars for a self-administered death dose? And how many friends or family members will be taken unawares of some of the very disturbing complications in the dying process gone awry at the bedside? Even in states with a remaining death penalty by injection or ingestion, there are still very dreadful episodes. And how so very callously does this bill devalue the strides and wonderful care provided by hospice and palliative care? Furthermore, while the bill requires a determination for mental competency, where is the counseling for patient and family to the full understanding and complications of self-administration? The committee heard ample testimony opposed to this as a \"slippery slope,\" but it's more like a \"step off the precipice.\" It is also inconsistent with constitutional purpose, for the value and preservation of life is a critical element of a free society, there being no express \"right\" to suicide. It is an affront to the personal, ethical, and religious beliefs of so many that human life is a sacred gift from God right unto natural death. But even from a secular standpoint, it detracts from hope and trust in the wonderful hospice and palliative care that eases pain and treats the person with care and dignity to the moment of passing. How does medically-assisted suicide comport with the role of the doctor as a healer who is bound by the ethical code of \"do no harm?\" The state must tread cautiously here against sanctioning this practice, or at the very least not do so without much further study to know of its effects, problems and implications where already implemented."}], "source": "House Calendar 11, 2024", "date": "2024-03-15", "dated": "printed", "cite": "HC 11", "cite_url": "https://gc.nh.gov/house/calendars_journals/viewer.aspx?fileName=calendars%5C2024%5CNo11%20March%2015%202024.pdf"}], "docket_reports": [{"date": "2024-05-16", "dated": "signed", "body": "S", "committee": "Health and Human Services", "side": "", "recommendation": "REFERRED TO INTERIM STUDY", "vote_yeas": 3, "vote_nays": 2, "amendment": "", "new_title": false, "cite": "SC 19", "cite_url": "https://gc.nh.gov/senate/calendars_journals/viewer.aspx?fileName=Calendars%5C2024%5CNo%2019%20May%2009%202024.pdf"}], "report_actions": [], "veto_message": null, "bill_note": null, "subject": "Public and Mental Health", "subject_source": "granite record", "house_committee": "Judiciary", "senate_committee": "Health and Human Services", "lsr": "2024-2049", "docket_url": "https://gc.nh.gov/bill_status/legacy/bs2016/bill_docket.aspx?lsr=2049&sy=2024&txtsessionyear=2024&txtbillnumber=hb1283&sortoption=billnumber", "documents": [{"label": "Bill text", "url": "https://gc.nh.gov/bill_status/legacy/bs2016/billText.aspx?id=20492024&txtFormat=html&sy=2024", "kind": "text"}, {"label": "Bill status page", "url": "https://gc.nh.gov/bill_status/legacy/bs2016/Bill_status.aspx?lsr=2049&sy=2024&txtsessionyear=2024&txtbillnumber=hb1283&sortoption=billnumber", "kind": "status"}, {"label": "Docket", "url": "https://gc.nh.gov/bill_status/legacy/bs2016/bill_docket.aspx?lsr=2049&sy=2024&txtsessionyear=2024&txtbillnumber=hb1283&sortoption=billnumber", "kind": "docket"}, {"label": "SC 16", "url": "https://gc.nh.gov/senate/calendars_journals/viewer.aspx?fileName=Calendars%5C2024%5CNo%2016%20April%2018%202024.pdf", "kind": "record"}, {"label": "SC 19", "url": "https://gc.nh.gov/senate/calendars_journals/viewer.aspx?fileName=Calendars%5C2024%5CNo%2019%20May%2009%202024.pdf", "kind": "record"}, {"label": "House Calendar 11, 2024, committee report", "url": "https://gc.nh.gov/house/calendars_journals/viewer.aspx?fileName=calendars%5C2024%5CNo11%20March%2015%202024.pdf", "kind": "report"}], "amendments": [{"num": "2024-0808h", "kind": "Committee Amendment", "where": "committee", "date": "2024-03-21", "body": "H", "adopted": true, "vote_kind": "VV", "mover": "", "proposed_by": "", "text": "Proposed by the Majority of the Committee on Judiciary-r Amend the bill by replacing all after the enacting clause with the following: 1 New Chapter; End of Life Options.

If either the prescribing health care provider or the consulting health care provider has doubts as to whether the individual is mentally competent and is unable to confirm that the individual is competent of making an informed decision, the prescribing health care provider or consulting health care provider shall refer the individual to a mental health professional for a determination regarding mental capacity. I. The mental health professional who evaluates the individual under this section shall submit to the requesting prescribing or consulting health care provider a written determination of whether the individual has the mental capacity to make informed health care decisions.

A health care provider shall inform a terminally ill patient of all reasonable options related to the patient's care that are legally available to terminally ill patients that meet the medical standards of care for end-of-life care. 137-M:8 Immunities and Conscience-based Decisions. I. An individual, a health care provider, health care entity, or professional organization or association shall not be subject to criminal liability, civil liability, licensing sanctions, or other professional disciplinary action for: (a) Participating in medical assistance in dying in good faith compliance with this chapter. (b) Being present when a qualified patient self-administers the prescribed medical assistance in dying medications to end the qualified individual's life in accordance with the provisions of this chapter. (c) Refusing, for reasons of conscience, to provide information on medical assistance in dying to a patient and refusing to refer a patient to any entity or individual who is able and willing to assist the patient in obtaining medical assistance in dying. A party who for reasons of conscience expects to refuse to participate in any part of the chapter shall so inform the qualified individual at or before the time of their request. II. A health care entity, health insurer, managed care organization or health care provider shall not subject a person to censure, discipline, suspension, loss or denial of license, credential, privileges or membership or other penalty for participating, or refusing to participate, in the provision of medical assistance in dying in good faith compliance with the provisions of this chapter. III. No health care provider who objects for reasons of conscience to participating in the provision of medical assistance in dying shall be required to participate in the provision of assistance in dying under any circumstance. If a health care provider is unable or unwilling to carry out an individual's request pursuant to the chapter, that health care provider shall so inform the individual at the time of the request and may refer the individual to a health care provider who is able and willing to carry out the individual's request or to another individual or entity to assist the requesting individual in seeking medical assistance in dying. The prior health care provider shall transfer, upon request, a copy of the individual's relevant medical records to the new health care provider. IV. A health care entity that chooses not to participate in providing medical assistance in dying shall not forbid nor otherwise sanction a health care provider in its employ from providing medical assistance in dying in accordance with the this chapter unless the health care entity has given written notice to the health care provider of the prohibiting entity's written policy forbidding participation in medical assistance in dying and the health care provider participates in medical assistance in dying in violation of the policy after receiving such notice. If the health care entity's policy prohibits its health care provider employees from providing medical assistance in dying both on and off the premises of the health care entity, and whether or not the health care provider employee is acting within the course and scope of employment, the policy shall explicitly so state. V. Nothing in this section shall be construed to prevent an individual who seeks medical assistance in dying from contracting with the individual's prescribing health care provider or consulting health care provider to act outside the course and scope of the provider's affiliation with a health care entity. VI. Participating, or not participating, in medical assistance in dying shall not be the basis for a report of unprofessional conduct. VII. A health care entity that prohibits medical assistance in dying shall accurately and clearly articulate this in a readily accessible location on any website maintained by the entity and notify patients in writing of its policy with regard to medical assistance in dying. 137-M:9 Prohibited Acts. I. Nothing in the chapter shall be construed to authorize a physician or any other person to end an individual's life by lethal injection, mercy killing, or euthanasia. Actions taken in accordance with this chapter shall not be construed, for any purpose, to constitute suicide, assisted suicide, euthanasia, mercy killing, homicide, or adult abuse under the law. II. Notwithstanding any other law, a person shall not be subject to civil or criminal liability solely because the person was present when the qualified individual self-administers the prescribed assistance-in-dying medications. A person who is present may, without civil or criminal liability, or any discipline for professional licensees, assist the qualified individual by preparing the assistance-in-dying medications. III. Any person who knowingly does any of the following with the intent to cause, interfere with, or prevent a qualified individual's death against the qualified individual's wishes shall be guilty of a class B felony: (a) Altering, forging, concealing, or destroying a request for a terminal prescription without the qualified individual's authorization.

The Department of Insurance states that certain factors, such as the demand for medical assistance in dying and the availability and cost of medications, may impact premium rates charged by insurers. Any such change would have an indeterminable impact on insurance premium tax revenue received by the state.\n\nThe Department of Health and Human Services states that the cost of its responsibilities under the bill (compiling information on medical assistance in dying and issuing an annual statistical report), will have a fiscal impact of under $3,000 per year.\n\nIn addition, the bill modifies criminal penalties, and/or changes statute to which there is a penalty for violation. Therefore, this bill may have an impact on the judicial and correctional systems, which could affect prosecution, incarceration, probation, and parole costs, for the state, as well as county and local governments. A summary of such costs can be found at: https://gencourt.state.nh.us/lba/Budget/Fiscal_Notes/JudicialCorrectionalCosts.pdf\n\nAGENCIES CONTACTED:\n\nDepartment of Insurance, Department of Health & Human Services, Judicial Branch, Department of Corrections, Department of Justice, Judicial Council, New Hampshire Municipal Association, and New Hampshire Association of Counties", "in_text": [], "chars": 26267}, "nver": 0, "namd": 0, "rsa": {"RSA 137-J:1": "/laws/137-j#s1", "RSA 329": "/laws/329", "RSA 326-B": "/laws/326-b", "RSA 318": "/laws/318", "RSA 137-J": "/laws/137-j", "RSA 167:4-d": "/laws/167#s4-d", "RSA 541-A": "/laws/541-a", "RSA 91-A": "/laws/91-a", "RSA 400-A:15": "/laws/400-a#s15", "RSA 420-J": "/laws/420-j", "RSA 417": "/laws/417"}, "amends": {}}
