Fairness in Health Systems

Fairness in health systems means that everyone has an equal opportunity to access quality healthcare, regardless of their background, income, or location. It aims to reduce disparities so that vulnerable groups, such as the poor or marginalized, receive the necessary services to stay healthy. This involves fair distribution of resources, equitable policies, and removing barriers that prevent people from getting care. Ultimately, fairness strives for a healthcare system where health outcomes are not determined by social or economic factors but by genuine medical need.
