title: Developing a fair use of resourcesThe recent British Medical Association report, Healthcare Funding Review ( BMA 2001 ), has thrown the issue of healthcare rationing into the spotlight again. Margaret Goodman looks at attempts to prioritise healthcare in other countries and draws lessons for the UK.
