Disability rights advocates are concerned by movements to "ration" health care for people with severe disabilities, as well as the imposition of do-not-resuscitate (DNR) orders for disabled people in hospitals, schools, and nursing homes.

Not Dead Yet opposes these policies, as well as the use of assisted suicide for people with disabilities as proposed by some members of the movement started by Jack Kevorkian.
