The position of the New York Academy of Medicine on physician-assisted suicide.

In January 1997, after a lengthy, careful, and difficult process, an ad hoc group, chaired by Dr. Alan R. Fleischman, a Senior Vice President of the New York Academy of Medicine (NYAM), with representation from clinical medicine, biomedical ethics, law, and the clergy, developed a position on the difficult and contentious issue of physician-assisted suicide. After substantial debate, the Board of Trustees of NYAM authorized a letter from the President of the Academy to the Justices of the United States Supreme Court and to the attorneys on both sides of the cases about to be argued before the Court. The text of that letter, which summarizes the views of the New York Academy of Medicine, is reproduced here.
