Actually you have no idea what you're talking about...
In America, Healthcare is a civil right, which was not always equal and still isn't today. In other Countries it's a birth right, as equal as our right to liberty is here - which is a granted right at birth.
More examples of civil right include MONEY (yes, the greenback is a granted right, same as gold, commerce, etc) and social security, driving on roads, the legal right to do business, and even Marriage!
Unless you're born with it, it's not a natural or absolute right.
Life is the only absolute right, while it can be taken away, it's the only right that doesn't take something from someone else and does not require a law or rule for it to take place.
Every other right we have, 100% of them, was given to you by another person, because some other person stepped on the right long before you came around.
I always find it funny when people such as yourself don't support healthcare as a right but use every other right already granted to you before you were born, like it's second nature to you, as if it's natural and always has been...... yeah, try taking away a right you have (even a civil right) and I guarantee you'll be singing a different "rights" song then.
