Philosophy 

• “Health” is considered as an important component of the “quality of life”

• “Health security” is a system of life security which gives a person confidence that they will be able to indulge in appropriate health behavior, and would be able to get complete access to health promotion and disease prevention services. They should also be able to access the quality health services without any obstacles when they are ill and in need of medical care.

• “Equity” of health can take place only when those with different social, economical and cultural status have the equal opportunity to get access to quality health care, whereby their responsibility to pay for the expenses should depend on their ability to pay.

• “Universal” indicates the basic philosophy under the national health security for which all people should have the right to obtain universal access. For whatever reason, nobody should be left out, oven on one’s own, based on equal respect of the status and right of the human dignity of people.
