The charter states: “Market forces, societal pressures, and administrative exigencies must not compromise this principle” • Patient autonomy. This principle incorporates honesty with patients and the need to educate and empower patients to make appropriate medical decisions. • Social justice. This principle addresses physicians' societal contract and distributive justice—that is, considering the available resources and the needs of all patients while taking care of an individual patient.
