social and market justice systems as they relate to health care

We have learned about the theories and characteristics behind the social and market justice systems as they relate to health care. Social justice theory assumes that the government is more responsible and efficient in allocating health resources equitably. All, as a basic right, should have equal access to medical care and ability to pay is inconsequential. Health care is a social good rather than an economic good like in the market justice system. Market justice theory assumes that markets are more efficient in allocating health resources equitably. Medical services should be based upon the ability to pay. For this paper you are going to select one of the justice systems and relate it to health care. List the characteristics of this system. Explain the philosophy behind the system by selecting at least one theorist we discussed. Describe its impact on you, on your chosen profession and the medical community.
