Getting Justice in Health and Health Care
NORMAN DANIELS, Mary B. Saltonstall, Professor of Population Ethics and Professor of Ethics and Population Health Harvard School of Public Health
The United States is the only wealthy country that lacks universal access to health care and many Americans believe health care reform is clearly in order. Crucial values issues underlie all aspects of health care reform. These values are key to answering fundamental questions underlying reform, such as: Is unequal access to care unjust, or is it an acceptable consequence of relying on private insurance? Who is obliged to pay for care, and how should the costs be distributed? What kinds of care are owed to people? Who has the moral authority to make such decisions? What is the role of individual choice? For further information contact George Panichas, ext. 5165 Kirby Law 104
