Ø Each individual has the right to freely choose from among different treatment procedures and providers on the basis of adequate information.
Ø The lack of all available treatments in some countries puts a limit on
the choice of patients. Ø On the other hand, how much is a newly diagnosed person in a
position to make decisions?
![Page 14: MS Patient Summit 2015, Rome; Patient Rights in Research and Treatment - Aliki Vrienniou](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032619/55c1c4b3bb61eb45338b4695/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Ø Each indiv idual has the right to be free from harm caused by the poor functioning of health services, medical malpractice and errors, and the right of access to health services and treatments that meet high safety standards.
Right to Safety 82
![Page 15: MS Patient Summit 2015, Rome; Patient Rights in Research and Treatment - Aliki Vrienniou](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032619/55c1c4b3bb61eb45338b4695/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)

Right to Personalized Treatment 83

q The above rights aim to guarantee a “high level of human health protection” and can be used as tools that enable patient organizations at local, European and International level to monitor their implementation and claim the highest level of healthcare services. q They must be recognised and respected independent of financial, economic or political problems. q The economic crisis in Europe has a negative impact on healthcare services, violating the rights of patients.
