until soon? The person is starting to have kidney stones.
Europe has Universal Healthcare. I was reading a story today about it and basically the central healthcare planning board said the following:
The National Institute for Health and Clinical Guidelines (Nice) has ruled for the first time that saving a life cannot be justified at any cost, in a review of its ethical guidelines.
Nice is facing growing criticism over the number of drugs it is now rejecting which are available throughout Europe and in America. Last week, it refused to sanction four kidney cancer drugs which can double life expectancy.
It has now rejected the so-called "rule of rescue" which stipulates that people facing death should be treated regardless of the costs. The rule is based on the natural impulse to aid individuals in trouble.
NICE is the Universal Healthcare Medical Board for England. So is this what is in store for us here in the United States?
