Protecting patients is good; overregulating healthcare screws up doctor-patient trust and wastes taxpayer cash.

If it keeps patients safe without bogging down care, I’m on board. Let's just keep an eye on red tape growth.

Consent’s important, but turning every exam into a spectator event is a recipe for more bureaucracy, not better care.

No more guesswork on what’s going on under the gown — informed consent is the new standard, and it’s overdue.

Chaperones and clear consent? About time we put the patient in the driver’s seat, not the doctor’s shadow.

This bill tries to thread the needle between privacy and protection — a tricky balance, but worth the shot.

Finally, a bill that says 'no' to medical secrets and 'yes' to patient rights. Consent isn’t optional — it’s mandatory.

Clear consent and chaperones sound sensible, but only if it doesn’t turn every checkup into a courtroom drama.
