Product Description
How should medical services be distributed within society? Who should pay for them? Is it aptly that large amounts should be spent on sophisticated technology and pricey operations, or would the resources be better employed in, for instance, less costly defensive measures? These and others are the questions addreses in this book. Norman Daniels examines some of the dilemmas thrown up by conflicting demands for medical attention, and goes on to advance a theory of justice in the distribution of health care. The central argument is that health care, both defensive and acute, has a crucial effect on equality of opportunity, and that a principle guaranteeing equality of opportunity must underly the distribution of health-care services. Access to care, defensive measures, treatment of the elderly, and the obligations of doctors and medical administrations are fully discussed, and the theory is shown to underwrite various matter-of-fact policies in the area.
