Healthcare Rights

Some people believe that, in order to care for its citizens, the United States should establish a universal health care system to decrease the cost of healthcare for everyone. Others feel that the right to healthcare is an individual’s right, and that a citizen must pay for healthcare if he or she decides to use it. Because hospitals often cannot deny individuals the right for emergency room services, hospitals often treat emergency health care as a right, and then bill the patient for services afterwards.

What do you believe? Do you believe that healthcare is a right or do you believe that people should receive services based only on their ability to pay for them?
