Prominent GP fined $12,000 and reprimanded for VAD paperwork error
The tribunal said its decision sent an "emphatic message" about strictly complying with legislation on VAD.
A GP advocate for voluntary assisted dying has been found guilty of professional misconduct and fined $12,000 over paperwork that was not signed properly.
The error happened in 2020, when Melbourne GP Dr Nick Carr arranged for his terminally ill patient to complete a form in front of two witnesses, the Victorian Civil and Administrative Tribunal said.
