| Annotation | The citizens' jury has emerged as a new form of public involvement in health care decision-making in the United Kingdom (UK). In 1996, the Institute for Public Policy Research (IPPR) and Opinion Leader Research conducted a pilot series of five citizens' juries, four in collaboration with selected health authorities. This discussion paper outlines the characteristics of citizens' juries and presents four case histories of questions considered by the juries of the different health authorities: health care rationing (Cambridge and Huntingdon Health Commission); priorities in palliative care (Walsall Health Authority); the standard of mental health care provision (Kensington, Chelsea and Westminster Health Authority); and drugs and community safety (Lewisham Council). The paper concludes with a section on the most common questions raised by citizens' juries. (AKM). |
