    Area of Science:

    • Health Law
    • Bioethics
    • Public Health Policy

    Background:

    • The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) has a history of issuing conscience and religious freedom regulations.
    • Previous administrations (Bush and Obama) enacted their own versions of these regulations.
    • The Trump administration proposed new regulations in 2018, establishing a dedicated division within HHS.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To analyze the implications of the Trump administration's proposed conscience and religious freedom regulations.
    • To compare the scope and impact of the 2018 proposed regulations with previous versions.
    • To examine how these regulations shift the balance of power between healthcare providers and patients.

    Main Methods:

    • Analysis of the 2018 proposed regulations from the Department of Health and Human Services.
    • Comparative review of federal conscience statutes and prior regulatory frameworks.
    • Examination of key provisions, including definitions, scope of protected activities, and enforcement mechanisms.

    Main Results:

    • The 2018 proposed regulations represent a significant expansion of healthcare provider power over patient medical choices.
    • These regulations broadly interpret federal conscience statutes, exceeding the scope of prior administrations' rules.
    • Key changes include expanded definitions, a lack of balanced interests, and a robust enforcement structure.

    Conclusions:

    • The finalized regulations could prioritize healthcare provider moral agency over patient autonomy.
    • The broad interpretation and enforcement structure may lead to increased conflicts and challenges in healthcare access.
    • Ongoing scrutiny and potential legal challenges are anticipated regarding these expanded conscience protections.
