title: Health care executives look at rationing.
abstract: In summary, executives want change. They want it done openly and they reaffirm their guiding principle of underwriting effective health care services. They are more circumspect on more specific methods, such as basing decisions on minorities' needs or the results of a public opinion poll. They do agree, however, that developing a plan to reduce the root causes of poor health would work to begin change.
