Bill of rights are as follows:

• Right to information
• Right to records and reports
• Right to emergency care
• Right to informed consent
• Right to confidentiality, human dignity, and privacy
• Right to second opinion
• Right to transperancy in rates and care according to prescribed rates wherever relevant
• Right to non discrimination
• Right to safety and quality care according to standards
• Right to chose alternative treatment options if available
• Right to chose source for obtaining medicines or tests.
• Right to proper referral and transfer, which is free from perverse commercial influences
• Right to protection for patients involved in clinical trials
• Right to protection of participants involved in biomedical and health research
• Right to take discharge of patient, or receive body of deceased from hospital
• Right to patient education
• Right to heard and seek redressal.

Understanding the bill of rights in caring patient is very important. It helps the patient to make his own choices according to his/ her financial status, availability of caregivers, his/ her health status, the type of hospital, doctor, type of surgery, his / her mental status e.t.c. Here the patient can chose other options for surgery such as

1. non surgical management
2. hip resurfacing
3. hemiarthroplasty
