The Complete Lives System is a system of rationing within the 2009 Obamacare law, also known as The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act.[1]
According to the system's creator, Dr. Ezekiel Emanuel, the Complete Lives System prioritizes younger people who have "not yet lived a complete life" over the elderly who have completely lived their lives.[2][3][4][5]
Critics of the Complete Lives System call the care curve a grim "Reaper Curve".[6]
