Undergo two surgical procedures

Be certified by 2 physicians as terminally ill and competent

To qualify for the Death with Dignity Act in Washington, a terminally ill patient must be certified by two physicians as terminally ill and competent. This means that they have been diagnosed with six months or less to live and are of sound mind to make their own decisions. The other options, such as undergoing surgical procedures or obtaining a court order, are not required for qualification under this act. Additionally, completing a state-mandated training program is not necessary, as long as the patient meets the criteria of being terminally ill and competent as determined by their physicians.
