by the tems of the law police only have access if the person is either accused ,charged or convicted of a specific offence and then only with a court order a doctor can refuse access under patient privelage rules .

I would definitely spend the time and money to consult with an attorney on this.  The way things are these days, it could ruin your business with litigation.  I imagine it is also determined as to "why" you would be refusing services, what basis.  Good Luck.

The police need a warrant to get your medical records without your consent.  If a doctor gives up that information without your consent, it cannot be used in a court of law.  If you are afraid your rights have been violated get an attorney.

All businesses have the right to refuse service to anyone.  But they really should provide you with an explanation, since you have dealt with them for a while.  One thing you can do is to contact the company and find out why they are refusing to serve you after they had been doing so for 5-1/2 years.  You can check with a manager, but you can also be prepared to follow the chain of command there, regardless of whether it's a local business, or a chain.  I hope this helps.

I really sympathize with you, this past summer I had horrible side effects with medication and also need to file bankruptcy because of the affect it had on my ability to work. Unfortunately, unless you have insurance they may be able to refuse you. The Hippocratic oath is only for life/death emergencies or other catastrophic events. Best of luck in your rebuilding process.

If it is not life threatening, they can refuse to treat your friend. I would suggest that he go to the free clinic nearest him in the morning. Should he require IV antibiotics, the staff Dr. at the clinic will send him to the county hospital and then he can be admitted.

I believe the laws of the US state that a person cannot be denied basic medical care  no matter what their financial conditions are.   I know that a few years back, I got medical care that I didn't have to pay for when I got bit by a spider, even though the cost was considerably more than my provincial government was willing to pay and my daughter got free care that saved her life that wasn't yet available in Canada.

That may be a cultural/religious thing and/or common in other countries, but it is NOT the law in the United States.  The only time a spouse would be asked for "permission" is if the patient was in a life threatening health crisis and the doctor needed authorization to treat the patient.  Tubal ligation is not a health crisis and is a voluntary surgery, so I can't imagine a time when "permission" would need to be sought for the procedure in this day and age.  Same for vasectomy in a vice versa situation.\n\nAmerican Academy of Family Physicians\nfamilydoctor.org/792.xml#8\n\nPlanned Parenthood: \n"Mentally competent adults can legally choose sterilization in all 50 states."\n\nJournal of the American Medical Association, 228(4):505.\n"There is no rule of law that states that one spouse can prevent the other from receiving medical care that is desired. There also does not appear to be any legal rule that states that one spouse must always be informed of medical care received by the other."

Ask lots of questions or have the client fill out a health history.  You have the right to refuse service to someone if they have a disease that can be transmitted.  Also, wash, wash, wash your hands before and after a massage, and use disinfected wash or whatever that stuff is called.  I use it every day and I can't even think of the name.  You know that stuff that is like water and dissolves the dirt and germs off.  It's like soap but you don't need water... geez... I'm sure you know what I'm talking about though.

In general your property belongs to you and you can exclude your neighbors.\nHowever, there are a few exceptions:\n\nYour neighbors can claim "Easement by prescription"[1] if she was using the driveway for long enough. \n\nAlso if your neighbors have no other way to get out to main road they may claim "Easement by necessity". [2]\n\n\n\nIf you want to know specific laws for Property in Arkansas you can consult the state code[3] (look for chapter 18. Property)\n\nBut in general a thing like this will be governed by common law. So I would recommend a lawyer to take a look at the specific fact of your case.

I would call your state medical board.  What they are doing seems to be quite unscrupulous since they already started the work.  I have never heard of a doctor refusing insurance once he accepted it and started the work.  Good luck.

You need to call and talk to an attourney. Rights for mentally ill patients varies from state to state.

I think I know what you mean... when a patient has "completed" short term "emergency" based "treatment" at a mental health facility they must leave to make room for more "emergency" cases. \nthese patients have no other options (unless they are independantly wealthy or their insurance covers treatment options for the specific type of disorder or illness. \nso, if you are a patient who has been released from a mental institution/facility, but if neither of these apply to you, then you can only go back to where you were before the "emergency" in your life happened. \nit's true that some people who leave mental health facilities didn't want to be there and don't wish to seek treatment... or that some people who leave wish to seek further treatment only for attention and don't intend to actually work with a mental health professional to get a plan for their lives and move forward and put positive action into play to cause change... \nbut the ones who WANT that positive change in their lives and who are willing to WORK to get that change don't seem to have the option from my experience. \nwe could have clinics where patients (who actually want to, and will work to be as productive and happy as they are able to be) can go to seek continued treatment after being discharged. \nthe patients who are able, yet not willing to seek treatment can't be dealt with until their behavior lands them in jail, unfortunately. we can't change that because their illness or refusal to seek treatment isn't an actual punishable crime. \nif treatment were not as difficult to get, more might seek it. then we'd be able to sort out who simply refuses to be treated and do something to make them pay consequinses such as pick up trash, cut grass, and such. until we are able to provide every willing patient with care and treatment, there isn't a way to know which patients are truly willing and which ones are not. \nresources are available for newly discharged patients, but then again the patient has to have a way to pay for these services. setting aside money to pay to workers (who'd be in charge of patient follow up calls or visits for a few weeks after discharged would be my best idea for beginning a plan to deal with this issue. but where would this money come from? \nthe united states has "after care"... \nunfortunately if you need long term care you eventually get dropped from the program because they need space for others (some of whom aren't going to stick with the program and will drop out willingly) or because they can't afford you anymore (if you are a "free care" or "percentage-income" patient). i do think after care is a good start to finding a better answer though.

Is there ANY way in which that is NOT a violation of the first amendment?  That judge managed to destroy BOTH freedom of religion AND freedom of speech in one sentence!  It's perfectly legal to refuse medical treatment for a dying child because it goes against your religious beliefs, but God forbid you make fun of Christianity when your kid's not even there.  Has Bush tried to appoint this guy to the Supreme Court yet?  And why is it that they don't take away people who teach their children to racism and homophobia (or creationism for that matter) but parents who's religion goes against Christianity can lose their kids?  Or maybe it was the sex toy thing.  Perhaps we should take away the kids of everyone who has had sex.  But wait a second, that might not work so well.
