The Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) released a guide entitled Mass Medical Care with Scarce Resources: the Essentials. It is an abridged and updated version of the original guide, which was published in 2007.

The guide includes material on influenza pandemic preparedness in order to apply the principles, and this section has links to influenza-specific resources such as training guides, guidelines, checklists, and similar material for hospitals, alternative care sites, and other health services. The guide also discusses ethical and legal issues.
