Bill > HB0074

This bill amends the Utah Uniform Probate Code to enact the "End of Life Options Act." The bill establishes a process for terminally ill, capable adults who are Utah residents to request and obtain aid-in-dying medication to end their lives in a humane and dignified manner. The bill outlines requirements for the patient's requests, the attending physician's responsibilities, consulting physician confirmation, counseling referrals, waiting periods, documentation, reporting, and liability provisions. The bill also addresses the effect on insurance policies, disposal of unused medication, and provisions related to death certificates and claims by the government for costs incurred.
