    This is the second part of a two-part article examining the statutory framework in New York State for the issuance of DNR orders. Part I addressed the procedure for issuance of a DNR order. Part II discusses recent changes in the DNR legislation, including nonhospital DNR orders, and describes the statutory procedure for cancellation of a DNR order, the dispute mediation system, the role of the courts, the interrelationship of the DNR statute with statutory health care proxies, the effects of a DNR order, and open questions and conflicts under under DNR statute.
