Ethical Perspective: Five Unacceptable Trade-offs on the Path to Universal Health Coverage
This article discusses what ethicists have called “unacceptable trade-offs” in health policy choices related to universal health coverage (UHC). Since the fiscal space is constrained, trade-offs need to be made. But some trade-offs are unacceptable on the path to universal coverage. Unacceptable choices include, among other examples from low-income countries, to expand coverage for services wit...
متن کاملModel Driven Scheduling Framework for Multiprocessor SoC Design
The evolution of technologies is enabling the integration of complex platforms in a single chip, called a System-on-Chip (SoC). Modern SoCs may include several CPU subsystems to execute software and sophisticated interconnect in addition to specific hardware subsystems. Designing such mixed hardware and software systems requires new methodologies and tools or to enhance old tools. These design ...
متن کاملCoronavirus: Where Has All the Health Economics Gone?
As the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic continues to unfold there is an untold number of trade-offs being made in every country around the globe. The experience in the United Kingdom and Canada to date has not seen much uptake of health economics methods. We provide some thoughts on how this could take place, specifically in three areas. Firstly, this can involve understanding the i...
متن کاملExtending the Safety Case Concept to Address Dependability
A safety case is a well-reasoned argument, supported by evidence that a system is acceptably safe to operate in a particular context. For many, evolving a safety case in step with the design has proved to be an effective means of identifying and addressing safety concerns during a system’s lifecycle. However, ultimately safety cases address only one system attribute safety. Increasingly, the id...
متن کاملDefining Pathways and Trade-offs Toward Universal Health Coverage; Comment on “Ethical Perspective: Five Unacceptable Trade-offs on the Path to Universal Health Coverage”
The World Health Organization’s (WHO’s) World Health Report 2010, “Health systems financing, the path to universal coverage,” promoted universal health coverage (UHC) as an aspirational objective for country health systems. Yet, in addition to the dimensions of services and coverage, distribution of coverage in the population, and financial risk protection highlighted by the report, the conside...
