Specifi cally, some mental health conditions require signifi cant resources for what Medicaid terms as "behavioral management," which is seen as a social support service not a medical treatment . Public health decisions about resource allocation-judging from the cases on that topic in this volume-face reasonable ethical disagreement. Approved in 1993, health reform in Colombia was supposed to overcome problems such as low coverage, inequality in access and use of health care services, and ineffi ciency in the allocation and distribution of resources. Variability in the frameworks used to allocate public health resources illustrates the importance of refl ecting upon the value s that undergird policy decisions and individual practices, like critical care triage.	./cache/cord-010513-7p07efxo.txt	./txt/cord-010513-7p07efxo.txt
