Ley de Subrogación (o Ley de Maternidad Subrrogada) del Sistema de Salud


Explanation:
La maternidad subrogada o subriogación es una práctica médica. Se puede hablar de gestación de sustitución, alquiler de útero, maternidad portadora. Sin embargo, la mayoría de los autores optan por el témino de maternidad subrogada.

neutral  Chema Nieto Castañón: Hola Yudith, me temo que el Surrogate Act no se refiere a maternidad subrogada sino a la toma de decisiones subrogadas (por representación) en materia de salud cuando el sujeto no puede tomar decisiones por sí mismo. ¡Saludos!

Ley para la toma de decisiones subrogadas [por representación] en materia de salud


Explanation:

The Health Care Surrogate Act allows family members or friends to make medical decisions in an emergency or serious health situation when a person with special needs cannot make medical decisions for himself and if no relevant power of attorney or similar is in effect.
https://www.rubinlaw.com/blog/what-is-the-illinois-health-ca...

La vigente Ley 41/2002 básica reguladora de la autonomía del paciente, en su artículo 9 hace referencia a la toma de decisiones subrogadas o por representación, cuando el paciente por su situación clínica no está en condiciones de tomar decisiones por sí mismo.
