In many cases, the law and appropriate ethical behavior are indistinguishable; however, they do not always share such simple boundaries. Each state’s law addresses what is necessary to obtain legal consent to surgery or a procedure, generally, including patient competence, receipt of adequate information, voluntariness, and understanding. Healthcare legal decisions are guided by how the facts satisfy those required elements of the law. Ethical codes reach beyond those requirements and typically have no tolerance for misrepresentations of educational background, certification status and professional experience. This activity reviews the legal and medical ethical implications of disclosing surgical outcome data of an individual surgeon during the informed consent process.
