Many CHI queries present ethical issues: CHIS has had questions from consumers who wanted to stop taking their medication (such as discontinuing antidepressants) or wanted to take higher doses of medication (such as a consumer being treated for schizophrenia believing that their medication level should be increased).

This will be welcome news to the many policy makers, researchers, health advocates, media and many others who rely on CHIS as the most comprehensive source of health information on Californians. |
