Informed Consent Form Process & Documentation

Obtaining the informed consent of the patient is required in all states before an invasive procedure that carries a material risk of harm is performed. This is a non-delegable duty of the practitioner who is going to perform the procedure; this means that the practitioner is ultimately responsible for the validity of the consent and cannot avoid liability by claiming that it was someone else’s responsibility.
