Summary
Healthcare funding policy is a moral project; it is about trying to make things better, and better for everyone. Unfortunately, the moral basis, and moral direction for policy, is rarely made explicit, and, of course, there are competing moral foundations. Does a Christian perspective have a place in what is essentially a post-Christian society? Christians are called to participate in living and advocating the realm of God, and Christians working in modern healthcare systems may be struggling with the very issues I canvass.
