The Right

The allocation of resources to providers and the way in which the resources are then prioritised to specific service areasand patients remain the critical ethical decisions which determine the type of health system a community receives.Health care providers will never be given enough resources to satisfy all the demands placed upon them by acommunity that is becoming increasingly informed and demanding. This paper discusses the matter of justice as itrelates to the distribution of health resources. It translates the theoretical constructs of distribution into a practicalsituation that arose at The Geelong Hospital. It is important to emphasise that the aim of giving the example is notnecessarily to provide the right answer but rather to assist in determining what ought to be the questions.

Justice In Health Care

Justice in health care and the allocation of scarce medical resources must be analyzed differently in affluent as compared to economically weaker societies. The protective functions of the state must be extended to cover basic needs for those too poor to meet them on their own. Medical needs are a high priority, since poor health hampers the ability to secure other basic needs. The state may operate as either a health care provider or supervisor, guaranteeing that citizens be treated fairly by nongovernmental institutions. Two-tiered systems with a vigorous private health care sector are compatible with the explicit right to health care, provided the private tier operates without directly or indirectly draining public funds.
