Nineteen contributions deriving from a project of the American Association for the Advancement of Science examine the ethical dimension of the debate on health care reform. They focus on concrete issues for establishing the scope and limitations of a right to health care and discuss the evolution of
Arguing that health care should be a human right rather than a commodity, the distinguished contributors to this volume call for a new social covenant establishing a right to a standard of health care consistent with society's level of resources. By linking rights with limits, they offer a framework for seeking national consensus on a cost-conscious standard of universal medical care. The authors identify the policy implications of recognizing and implementing such a right and develop specific criteria to measure the success of health care reform from a human rights perspective.
"Health Care Reform" also offers specific and timely criticism of managed competition and its offspring, the Clinton plan for health care reform. Because health care reform will inevitably be an ongoing process of assessment and revision -- especially since managed competition has not been implemented elsewhere -- this book will last beyond the moment by providing vital standards to guide the future evolution of the health care system.
