Are there laws that would indemnify the healthcare provider for unexpected adverse outcomes for voluntary recipients of experimental drugs?

I don't know. I doubt it. This points to a fundamental problem in our liability system that there is no simple "This is my choice and there is nobody to blame but me. I take all the risk and can't sue anybody" contract. Our laws are written by lawyers for lawyers.
