Case Study: Health care administrators are confronted with ethical dilemmas and difficult decision making during their work. As we have already discovered, there are important interactions between ethical behaviors and legal issues. Health care administrators need to understand the relationships as well as the distinct differences. Health care institutions have ethics committees that play a central role in the protection of patients' rights, the organization as a whole, and its staff.

Imagine you work as a professional health care administrator in a large medical center. You have been asked to present a writing at a professional conference on medical ethics and caregiver-patient encounters. You must write about a significant physician-patient ethical dilemma in a medical setting, defending the decision and conclusions made.
