Rationierung und das Recht auf Gesundheit

Rationing is more than just withholding. In the context of statutory allocation, decisions to allocate health services with limited resources are equally important to consider as rationing, as they lead to redistribution. Rationing understood in this way is often found in the SHI system at various decision-making levels of joint self-administration. It follows certain - already known - rationing criteria. In view of the generational change, this raises both constitutional and moral-philosophical questions about the further development and application of these rationing mechanisms – beyond the decision on life and death. This book approaches these questions.
