Legal Safeguards

Meaning

Legal safeguards are the established body of laws, regulations, and contractual obligations designed to protect patient rights, ensure ethical practice, and mitigate risks associated with the provision of health and wellness services. In the specialized domain of hormonal health, these safeguards are particularly critical for governing the informed consent process, the off-label use of therapeutic agents, and the secure handling of sensitive biometric and genetic data. They represent the essential legal infrastructure for responsible clinical innovation.
