title: Rationing care in Oregon.
abstract: As a means of curtailing rising health care costs under Medicaid, Oregon has developed a priority list of some 700 medical conditions. The list will serve as the basis for determining what Medicaid services low-income people in Oregon receive. The plan is being heralded by some as a significant step toward universal access to health care, while others see it as unfairly depriving many of needed services.
