Preferred term

moral choice and public policy  

Definition

  • This entry on moral choice and public policy in medical decision making focuses on the irreducible components of the physician-patient relationship as it is the foundational nature of that relationship that determines the moral character of decisions in healthcare. The focus on the physician-patient relationship is historically and fundamentally appropriate, but it is also dated. [Source: Encyclopedia of Medical Decision Making; Moral Choice and Public Policy]
