The purpose of this legislation, known as the Defense of Conscience in Health Care Act, is to ensure that individuals and organizations in the healthcare sector can refuse to participate in certain medical procedures or services that conflict with their personal beliefs or conscience. This act aims to reinforce protections for these conscience rights, particularly in the context of healthcare. The key provisions of the act require the Secretary of Health and Human Services to create new regulations that mirror previous rules established in 2019 regarding conscience protections in healthcare.
