It comprises the right to enjoy the best physical and mental health. Analysis of the provisions of international legal acts proves the right to healthcare in the international treaties and declarations has evolved from the health as a fundamental value of the human being to the independent right, the implementation of which involves an increasing number of measures (which become even more targeted) for the implementation of factors that cause major effect on health. The international legal acts provide for the basic provisions and clearly defined measures to be put to life, however it is the national disposition that determines the scope and methods of their implementation. The right to health care is not absolute in itself: efficiency of its implementation depends upon both ability of administrative and institutional systems, which were created by the state, to properly implement the assigned functions and upon the individual, its state of health and lifestyle. So on the grounds of the fundamental value of the human rights, this article describes a basis of the right to health care in terms of quality, discloses its concept, reviews the spheres of health system in which this right is exercised: health care and public health.
