Description
50 years ago a uniform organ donation law had not been enacted, the physician assistant wasn't a profession, bioethics wasn't a field, and emergency medical services was a hearse or a painted station wagon with a driver who had inadequate medical training, and 9-1-1 didn't yet exist. From 1967 to 1976, Alfred Sadler and Blair Sadler, a doctor and a lawyer, who are also twin brothers, collaborated on major decisions and laws which had multigenerational and lifesaving impacts in our country including:
- The transformation of emergency medicine from a wasteland to a vital component of health care
- The development of the universal state law (Uniform Anatomical Gift Act) authorizing organ donation and transplantation
- The birth of the brand-new physician assistant profession
- The emergence of bioethics as a core principle in healthcare today
