Alan,
Thanks for forwarding the article - one of your paragraphs brought up a
key point that I'm interesting in hearing other views on. That is,
should we prioritize products that extend the life of or the quality of
life of those with terminal illnesses? And I would go further in asking
how much should third parties be willing to pay for end-of-life care? I
think this debate has major implications not only for the UK but also
for the US where we essentially prioritize end-of-life care for the
insured over covering our 46 million (or so) uninsured.
