    reduced government payments for health care
    services, what are the ethical issues of limiting
    care? How much uncompensated care can hospitals
    absorb? Where do people with no resources go for
    care? What is the states responsibility to
    ensure health care services? What are the ethical
    considerations that should be taken into account?

    daughter, who is a naturopathic physician,
    insists that she can cure her father by

    interventions on her part, but the nursing and

    had assisted in positioning the patient and had
    helped to administer some of the initial
    anesthetic.
