Health Care Reform and Two Conceptions of the Right to Health Care

Health Care Reform and Two Conceptions of the Right to Health Care

Description

Professor Scheffler of the University of Miami School of Law, presented his work Health Care Reform and Two Conceptions of the Right to Health Care, about two distinct conceptions of the right to health care: one which focuses on sufficient access to health care—what I refer to as the Right to a Decent Minimum—and a second which focuses on equality in access to health care— what I refer to as the Right to Equal Access.
