Abstract
Personal responsibility for health is part of the federal goverment's health reform to improve health and health outcomes and to shift costs from government to the individual. Allthough self-responsibility seems intuitively attractive, many questions remain unanswered. These include socioeconomic barriers of personal responsibility; differences between personal responsibility and individual freedom; costs of promoting personal responsibility; and counterproductive effects of personal responsibility. Effective health improvement requires a new balance between personal and social responsibility.
