Question: Many debates about health policy center on our allocation of resources. Who should have access to what and at what price? Medicare, Medicaid, and CHIP, are all examples of federal policies which require resources. Some argue these government sponsored programs require too many resources, while others argue they need more. Etzioni and Callahan present two very different perspectives on how we allocate resources and if rationing is warranted. How should health care be rationed in the US?
