Michigan Preparing to Let Doctors Refuse to Treat Gays

Doctors or other health care providers could not be disciplined or sued if they refuse to treat gay patients under legislation passed Wednesday [April 21, 2004] by the Michigan House. The bill allows health care workers to refuse service to anyone on moral, ethical or religious grounds.

The Republican dominated House passed the measure as dozens of Catholics looked on from the gallery. The Michigan Catholic Conference, which pushed for the bills, hosted a legislative day for Catholics on Wednesday at the state Capitol.

The bills now go the Senate, which also is controlled by Republicans.

The Conscientious Objector Policy Act would allow health care providers to assert their objection within 24 hours of when they receive notice of a patient or procedure with which they don't agree. However, it would prohibit emergency treatment to be refused. Read more.

[Edited to add: This bill, Michigan HB 5006, seems to have been passed in April, 2004. As best as I can tell, the corresponding Senate Bill, SB 972, is bottled up in the Senate Health Policy committee. Let's hope it stays stuck there forever.]
