AN20 - Proposed Rule - Elimination of Requirements for Prior Signature Consent and Pre- and Post- Test Counseling for HIV Testing

View Comment

I agree this proposal makes a lot of sense and should be finalized. Current requirements for written consent for HIV testing place an unnecessary obstacle to testing which is not used in any other health care system.\ This proposal is much more in tune with CDC recommendations.
