abstract:Ezekiel Jonathan "Zeke" Emanuel (born 1957) is an American bioethicist and fellow at the nonprofit bioethics research institute The Hastings Center. He opposes legalized euthanasia, and is a proponent of a voucher-based universal health care.
But another more liberal school of thought, popularized by Obama's budget chief Peter Orszag, health advisor EzekielEmanuel and the new Medicare administrator Donald Berwick, says that the government should play a role in studying the "comparative effectiveness" of different treatment options.
