No, Lord Tammerlain, budgeting is not rationing.
Budgeting allows freedom of choice as to where we might spend our money, while rationing is imposed.
If you need X amount of health care and have to settle for less due to financial reasons, you are having health care rationed. You are doing the rationing rather then the government but it is still being rationed.
The end result is that you did not get the health care you need
