Basic disaggreements about what makes human life valuable hinder use of the concept of the futility to decide whether it is appropriate to continue life support for one in a permanent state of unconsciousness, or to provide intensive medical care to one in the last stages of aterminal illness (the paradigm cases"). Triage planning (the process of establishing criteria for health care prioritization) is an attractive alternative alternative framework for addressing the paradigsm cases. Triage planning permits society to see the cases in the context of diverse moral perspective, limited resources, and competing health care demands. Furtermore, at least one essential question posed by the paradigm cases is whether treatments is wasteful, and triage planning can be implemented to address the paradigm cases, and conclude than it offers one way of moving debate these cases beyond futility.
