[Prioritization in the healthcare system: options and limits].
The public discussion on the future of the healthcare system has recognized that the gap between needs and financial possibilities for coverage is becoming increasingly larger due to increasing needs and reduced financial support. It can be assumed that due to reduced financial means and increasing demands on provision of service in healthcare and nursing, the time will come when prioritization will be necessary. The medical profession should prepare itself for this situation because prioritization is a long process.
