This week, we are going to discuss individual rights by doing the following:

1. Select an individual healthcare related right from Chapter 6 of our e-text such as EMTALA, Women in Labor Act, Roe v. Wade, access to health insurance (the ACA), access to reproductive rights such as birth control and abortion.
2. Describe the right briefly and then discuss if there are any attempts to curtail (reduce) or eliminate (erase) these rights. You can use the cases described in the e-text in this chapter or cases you find in Westlaw or on the World Wide Web. Describe any opposition to the efforts to reduce or eliminate these currently available individual rights to health care services and access.
