Health Right Network (HRN), a civic movement organization of citizen and patients, was founded in 2003 April, aiming for realization of health right in Korea. HRN have opposed to privatization of health care, asserting for broader coverage in social health insurance and diminishing user-fees. To guarantee dignity of patients and civic participation, we are preceding ‘patient right movement’ and ‘civic participation movement’. Also, in order to sustain health care accessibility in context of economic recession, we are arranging pro-poor health right campaign such as caring for social health insurance defaulter & those who lack access to health care due to economic constraint, and making healthier community for dosshouse residents.
