Prioritization involves confronting difficult choices, often with serious implications for the people affected, such as:
- Prioritizing patients for access to elective (non-urgent) health care
- Targeting social assistance (e.g. housing, health care, income support) for people in need
- Ranking research grant applications
- Selecting students for scholarships or restricted courses (e.g. medical school). Case study »
Criteria and weights
Prioritization decision-making involves agreeing on the relevant criteria for the decision at hand and weighting them relative to each other.
