The Oregon Medical Board is considering a new rule that would make reporting microaggressions mandatory for doctors. Under this proposed ethics rule, doctors who commit microaggressions risk losing their medical licenses. The rule, which is soon to be finalized in June 2024, has sparked controversy due to its ambiguous nature and the potential for it to be coercive. Critics argue that the requirement to report all microaggressions by colleagues could lead to a contentious work environment.
