Hi. I'm Arthur Caplan. I'm at the NYU School of Medicine where I run the Division of Medical Ethics. A recent article by scholars at the Hastings Center, a bioethics think tank in Garrison, New York, made an interesting point: The authors said they didn't think that patients should be viewed as consumers.[1]
