CABELLO-ROBERTSON, Javiera  e  NUNEZ-NOVA, Alexander. Institutional conscientious objection and health regulation: is there a legitimate excuse to abortion in Chile?. Rev. Bioética y Derecho [online]. 2018, n.43, pp.161-177. ISSN 1886-5887.

The objective of the paper is to analyse the various aspects of Chilean health regulation and Bioethics theory, and to clarify its eventual conflicts with conscientious objection, regarding the possibility of excusing oneself from practising abortions in private health institutions. The idea is to show that there are powerful arguments proving a health institution cannot deny an abortion procedure, and that conscientious objection is not a valid excuse for that denial in spite of its recent legal acceptance.

Palavras-chave : right to health; conscientious objection; abortion; private health institutions; public service.
