MO SB466

Health care facilities, nursing homes, and physicians must disclose in writing upon request any policies relating to life-sustaining or nonbeneficial treatment for patients or residents

For minor patients, written permission from at least one parent or legal guardian is required before withholding life-sustaining procedures, food, medication, nutrition, or instituting do-not-resuscitate orders ("Simon's Law")

Providers cannot deny life-sustaining treatment based on viewing elderly, disabled, or terminally ill patients' lives as less valuable, or based on disagreement with how patients value trade-offs between life extension and disability risk

Minors with developmental disabilities cannot be deemed ineligible for organ transplants solely due to their disability, unless a physician determines after individualized evaluation that the disability is medically significant to the transplant provision

Healthcare providers retain the right to refuse to honor decisions withdrawing life-sustaining treatment if the refusal is based on religious beliefs or sincerely held moral convictions
