Abstract. In the context of health care, social justice plays a crucial role in ensuring that individuals have equal access to quality and affordable health services. This article delves into the significance of social justice in healthcare and its impact on the overall well-being of individuals. It emphasizes the need for a regulatory framework that fosters the integration of innovative technologies to enhance the quality and duration of human life. Additionally, the article sheds light on the role of the state in upholding and providing human rights and freedoms, particularly in the realm of personalized medicine.

It concludes that achieving a modern level of convergence of the principles of equality and social justice in health care requires a comprehensive approach that takes into account legal, moral-ethical, financial-economic, and medical-innovative aspects. By addressing these various facets, it is possible to create a healthcare system that is not only efficient and effective but also equitable and just for all individuals.

Keywords: healthcare, social justice, equal access, regulatory framework, personalized medicine, equality.
