"Healthcare has an impact on everyone, and healthcare funding decisions shape how
and what healthcare is provided. In this book, Stephen Duckett outlines a Christian,
biblically grounded, ethical basis for how decisions about healthcare funding and
priority-setting ought to be made. Taking a cue from the parable of the Good Samaritan
(Luke 10:25-37), Duckett articulates three ethical principles drawn from the story:
compassion as a motivator; inclusivity, or social justice as to benefits; and responsible
stewardship of the resources required to achieve the goals of treatment and prevention.
These are principles, he argues, that should underpin a Christian ethic of healthcare
funding. Duckett's book is a must for healthcare professionals and theologians struggling
with moral questions about rationing in healthcare. It is also relevant to economists
interested in the strengths and weaknesses of the application of their discipline
to health policy."
