艾伦·布坎南基于美国公私混合制度医疗保健系统中，私人医疗主体占比较大，但私人医疗主体提供医疗保健服务的义务比较模糊的现实境况，通过分析医疗保健权的性质，进而尝试展开对这种权利的论证。在对关于医疗保健权几种论证思路的考察后，布坎南对实现人人享有适当最低限度医疗保健的政策必须以获得一种普遍的道德权利为前提的这种观点提出质疑，认为通过论证与医疗保健权相对应义务的履行应具有强制性的观点同样可以保障人人享有合适最低限度的医疗保健政策，在“非权利论证”的论证思路下，从权利的强制性特征为私人医疗主体对医疗保健权应承担实质性的义务提供一种论证理由。但是，这种非权利论证方式并未解决医疗保健权权利论证中的困境，不能作为严格意义上对权利的论证方式，仅为保障医疗保健政策的实施提供一种思考方式。

    Allen Buchanan gives an argumentation on the right of health care based on the reality that private health-care provider organizations occupy a large proportion in the U.S. Health-Care System, but the identification of their obligations is vague. Considering about several ideas about a right to a decent minimum. Allen Buchanan questioned the view that everyone will have access to a decent minimum of health care must be on the basis of a theoretical grounding that there is a universal right. Buchanan provides an argumentation for responsibilities of private health-care providers in the U.S. Health-Care System on the non-rights-based approach to the right to health care. However, non-rights-based approach does not solve the dilemma in the argument of the right to health care and cannot be regarded as the argument of the right in a strict sense. It only provides a reflection for the implementation of health care policy.
