Default Landmine for doctors

Other concerns:

What effect will this have on physicians? Will they face an ethical issue of having to decide whether or not to tell a patient of an upcoming trial if they are contacted and advised that their patient "fits" the criteria? Will they get sued if they dont' mention the trial to that patient, or sued because they mention it, the patient participates, and something goes wrong?

It gets stickier and stickier, as they say.

What a nightmare for docs, I wonder if individual physicians support this whole concept?
