  1. Rational Noncompliance with Prescribed Medical Treatment.Douglas O. Stewart & Joseph P. DeMarco - 2010 - Kennedy Institute of Ethics Journal 20 (3):277-290.
    Patient noncompliance with physician prescriptions, especially in nonsymptomatic chronic diseases, is frequently characterized in the literature as harmful and economically costly (Miller 1997).1 Nancy Houston Miller views patient noncompliance as harmful because noncompliance can result in continued or new health problems leading to hospital admissions. Further, she places the annual monetary cost of noncompliance at $100 billion.Patient noncompliance with prescribed treatment is considered the least understood form of health behavior (Coons 2001). Despite the plethora of attention in journal articles, the (...)

  • Patients as rational traders: Response to Stewart and DeMarco. [REVIEW]Malcolm Parker - 2006 - Journal of Bioethical Inquiry 3 (3):133-136.
    Stewart and DeMarco’s economic theory of patient decision-making applied to the case of diabetes is flawed by clinical inaccuracies and an unrealistic depiction of patients as rational traders. The theory incorrectly represents patients’ struggles to optimize their management as calculated trade-offs against the costs of care, and gives an unrealistic, inflexible account of such costs. It imputes to physicians the view that their patients’ lack of compliance is unreasonable, but physicians are accustomed to the variety of human factors which contribute (...)

  • Best Interest of the Child: Surrogate Decision Making and the Economics of Externalities. [REVIEW]Joseph P. DeMarco, Douglas P. Powell & Douglas O. Stewart - 2011 - Journal of Bioethical Inquiry 8 (3):289-298.
    The case of Twin B involves the decision to send a newborn to a less intensive Level 2 special care nursery (SCN) than to the Level 3 neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) that is considered optimal by the physician. The physician’s acceptance of the transfer is against the child’s best interest and is due to parental convenience. In analyzing the case, we reject the best interest standard. Our rejection is partly supported by the views of Douglas Diekema, John Hardwig, and (...)
