Ethical Access

Meaning

Ethical access, within the clinical and research context, refers to the moral imperative and practical framework ensuring that all individuals have fair and equitable opportunity to benefit from medical interventions, diagnostics, and clinical trials. This principle mandates that access is not unduly restricted by factors such as socioeconomic status, geographic location, or demographic characteristics. Upholding ethical access is crucial for maintaining trust in the healthcare system and ensuring justice in the distribution of health resources.
