Scarce Resources Allocation in Public Health has been highly debated over time. At the intersection between public and private interests, this topic calls into question the fundamental principles of bioethics: autonomy, beneficence, non maleficence and justice. From admission to dialysis to expensive cancer treatments, the dilemma remains unsolved: how to allocate resources when the need far exceeds the supply? It is extremely difficult to arrange an equal solution: every allocation system will somehow result in inequality. Building upon this scenario, this essay focuses on two different solutions adopted over time. The first one was proposed in 1969 for scarce resources allocation, and the second one is a recent solution to cope with the high prices of cancer treatments.
