Where do I go to wait? Ethical considerations during the 90 day reflection period for MAiD

Article indépendant

DISHA, Kesi | BIANCHI, Andria | SHANKER, Ruby | LUKICH, Nikolija

Canada’s Medical Assistance in Dying (MAID) legislation changed in 2021; persons without a reasonably foreseeable natural death (RFND) could now be eligible for MAID and would have to wait at least 90 days before their intervention. This legislative change caused a new ethically complex question to arise, which we explore in this commentary, namely: Where should individuals without a RFND wait (for 90 days) in a publicly funded health system?
