It will be unconstitutional!!
MYRTLE BEACH, S.C. (WBTW) — South Carolina Gov. Henry McMaster will sign a bill that allows medical providers to deny care based on religious beliefs, according to a spokesperson with the governor’s office.
snip
House Bill 4776, also known as the "Medical Ethics and Diversity Act," states “A medical practitioner, health care institutions, and health care payers have the right not to participate in or pay for any health care service which violates the practitioner’s or entity’s conscience.”
snip
"It impacts people who are trying to access a whole host and range of medications at a pharmacy, whether it is birth control pills, medications to prevent HIV, anything that a pharmacist could object to," Warbelow said in April.

Now you see where this is going, religious beliefs are a token of heatlh ins. Without religious beliefs you don't get care if the phyician or pharmacist agrees.
Medicine is complicated. There are elective procedures, and there are life saving procedures. As far as I know it's actually illegal for any ER in this country to turn away a patient who needs care. On the other hand there is no law preventing a doctor from opting out of plastic surgery or any other specialty.Your OP title is misleading. You make it sound like the bill allows doctors to deny patients care because of the patients' religious beliefs.
Instead, all the bill does is prohibit hospitals, clinics, and local officials from forcing doctors to perform procedures that violate their religious beliefs, such as abortion and sex-change operations.
I take it you believe that doctors should be forced to do so. As usual, liberalism comes down on the side of coercion and compulsion and against liberty and freedom of choice.
What about the doctors' First Amendment rights? I guess your view is that they give up their basic constitutional rights when they become doctors. That's a rather "queer" view of the Constitution (pun intended).
Muslim ER doc can now refuse to treat a Christian since that would be helping an infidel.
Are you really this fucking stupid? Not just any doctor could do a sex change procedure, it is a highly specialized and requires training and equipment 99.9% of doctors do not have.
Hospitals do not have religious beliefs, only people do. Should a hospital or doctor be able to turn away a pregnant woman because she is not married?
Instead, all the bill does is prohibit hospitals, clinics, and local officials from forcing doctors to perform procedures that violate their religious beliefs, such as abortion and sex-change operations.
Where did you get the idea that it was against the Muslim Religion to provide medical care to non-muslims?
this has nothing to do with the patients religious beliefs, but the medial providersMYRTLE BEACH, S.C. (WBTW) — South Carolina Gov. Henry McMaster will sign a bill that allows medical providers to deny care based on religious beliefs, according to a spokesperson with the governor’s office.

not sure what it is with your demafasict that make you think you can enslave people to do whatever you want them to do
Actually it has been a real issue...remember when folks tried to force a baker to violate his religous beliefs? The case went all the way to the SCOTUS.....and the baker won.The whole thing is political tripe.
You people would like about water being wet...lolit does more than that:
(1) 'Conscience' means the religious, moral, ethical, or philosophical beliefs or principles held by any medical practitioner, health care institution, or health care payer. Conscience with respect to institutional entities or corporate bodies, as opposed to individual persons, is determined by reference to that entity or body's governing documents including, but not limited to, any published religious, moral, ethical, or philosophical guidelines or directives; mission statements; constitutions; articles of incorporation; bylaws; policies; or regulations.

it denies ins.
The "queer" thing about it is that faith is being replaced by science worldwide, so faith has to try harder to keep its roster. Because religion itself secretes atheism and Christianity is the world's #1 religion for secreting it, the only intelligent thing to say to these protection rackets is "In Science We Trust."Your OP title is misleading.
