, CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION
Scarcity and choice are two fundamental elements involved in the planning and provision of
HC services; the available resources are never sufficient to allow for provision of all available
health interventions. Choices must be made, which can involve very difficult decisions.
ð The concept of allocating scarce resources in the best manner is encountered in every
context, though the # of absolute resources varies per context.
The issue in HC can be stated as: “How can the scarce health resources allocated to
health care best be used in order to maximise the health gain obtained from them”.
ð Maximing health gain is not the only objective of a HC system; a HC system also has
interests vested in fairly distributing resources (e.g., education, training, research)
ð Maximizing the health gain is termed the efficiency objective, which is further
elaborated on in the book.
