The WHO definition of health recognizes that health is a very broad concept that goes well beyond the absence of disease to include, among other things, social well-being.  We know that to achieve good health we require more than health care.  Although it is imperative to have good health care when one is sick, health care itself not the only, or even the primary determinant of good health.
