Which of the following is NOT a right included in the Patient Self Determination Act?

The Patient Self Determination Act (PSDA) focuses on ensuring that patients understand their rights regarding medical decisions, including their right to make informed choices about their own healthcare. This act emphasizes the rights of patients to make decisions about their own medical treatment, understand those decisions, and express their wishes regarding end-of-life care.

Among the rights explicitly supported by the PSDA are the right to informed consent, which requires that patients are adequately informed about their treatment options; the right to privacy and confidentiality, which protects patients' personal health information; and the right to access medical records, allowing patients to view their own health information.

In contrast, the notion of receiving free healthcare is not a right outlined in the PSDA. Healthcare access and affordability depend on various factors, including insurance coverage and socioeconomic status, but the PSDA does not guarantee that healthcare services will be provided at no cost to patients. Therefore, choosing the right stating that patients have a guarantee of free healthcare accurately identifies something not included in the Patient Self Determination Act's framework.
