Ensuring equity and quality of care for elderly people: a critique of the College report.

A B Shaw1.   

Abstract

Rationing methods which discriminate against patients on account of their age can be ethical. Sometimes the young and sometimes the old should be favoured. It may depend on who benefits most and whether the rationing is by waiting list or by the exclusion of individuals. Equality is not equity.
