End of Life Options
HAMMER | 7:30 p.m., Hammer Museum
Last year, California became the fifth and largest state to enact an assisted suicide law, the End of Life Option Act, allowing doctors to prescribe aid-in-dying medication. Compassion & Choices president Barbara Coombs Lee, UCLA health policy professor Cindy Cain, author and physician Dr. Haider Warraich, and Dan Diaz, husband of the late death-with-dignity advocate Brittany Maynard, discuss the legal, social, and medical ramifications of physician-assisted death. Moderated by Ian Masters.
