Rights of People with Cancer in the Context of Health Bioethics in Brazil

Journal Title: Annals of Bioethics & Clinical Applications - Year 2023, Vol 6, Issue 4

Abstract

The right to health is guaranteed by the Constitution of the Federative Republic of Brazil, in addition to the Unified Health System (Sistema Unico de Saude, SUS in Portuguese) created in 1990 is the framework of public health based on the principles of universality, equity and integrality. These three basic principles aim to ensure access to health services for all people, regardless of any social or personal characteristics. Thus, health services must respect the individuality of each person, recognize differences, and reduce inequalities so that people receive treatment according to their needs. However, what we perceive in practice is that people do not always receive adequate treatment and, as a result, other legal provisions have been created in an attempt to ensure comprehensive care and the strengthening of public policies for the promotion and prevention of diseases.
