Who is this Bill for?

This Bill is for medical doctors – it will protect those who want to find new and better ways of caring for their patients and finding better ways to treat patients.

It is for the courts – current law is ambiguous and leads to uncertainty. The current law does not define clearly what good, or bad, practice is in regards to innovation. It causes doubt among judges and doctors. This Bill brings clarity.

And most of all it is for us – patients. Most of us have been touched by ill health, by cancer and rare or hard to treat diseases. And those of us who haven’t been, almost certainly will be, one day.

It will allow us to go to our medical doctor and say: “Have you tried everything? Is there anything new out there? Something that is not standard procedure? I would like you to try it – you can, you know, because of the Medical Innovation Bill.”
