El sistema de cuidado de salud en los estados unidos está marcado tanto por desafíos extraordinarios como por inmensas posibilidades para hacer el bien. En estas directivas revisadas, los obispos católicos de los estados unidos reafirman el compromiso de la iglesia con el ministerio católico de cuidado de salud, en fiel imitación de jesucristo, el divino médico.

Las directivas se proponen reafirmar los estándares éticos de conducta y proporcionar una guía autorizada sobre cuestiones morales que enfrenta el cuidado de salud hoy en día. Esta sexta edición (2018) ofrece una útil actualización de la sexta parte, acuerdos de colaboración con otras organizaciones y proveedores de cuidado de salud. Esta sección revisada ofrece contexto y lineamientos para acuerdos de colaboración entre instituciones de cuidado de salud católicas y no católicas.

Las directivas son especialmente pertinentes para servicios católicos de cuidado de salud de carácter institucional y se dirigen directamente a los miembros del patronato y del consejo de administración, a los administradores, a los capellanes, a los médicos, al personal de cuidado de salud y a los pacientes y residentes de instituciones católicas de cuidado de salud. Estas directivas también son útiles como herramienta de enseñanza para brindar orientación sólida a estudiantes y profesores de facultades de medicina católicas, asociaciones médicas católicas, hospitales y establecimientos médicos católicos, y a todos los pastores, administradores, médicos, enfermeras y personal dedicado al ministerio de cuidado de salud y atención pastoral relacionada.


The health care system in the United States is marked by both extraordinary challenges and immense possibilities for good. In these revised directives, the US Catholic bishops reaffirm the Church's commitment to Catholic health care ministry, in faithful imitation of Jesus Christ, the divine physician.

The directives aim to reaffirm ethical standards of behavior and provide authoritative guidance on moral issues that face health care today. This Sixth Edition (2018) offers a helpful update of Part Six, collaborative arrangements with other health care organizations and providers. This revised section offers background and guidelines for collaborative arrangements between Catholic and non-Catholic health care institutions.

The directives are especially relevant to institutionally based Catholic health care services and are directly addressed to sponsors, trustees, administrators, chaplains, physicians, health care personnel, and patients or residents of Catholic health care institutions. These directives are also useful as a teaching tool to give sound guidance to students and faculty at Catholic medical schools, Catholic medical associations, Catholic hospitals and medical facilities, and to all pastors, administrators, doctors, nurses, and staff involved in the health care ministry and related pastoral care.
