Among various political theories of distributive justice on social resources, John Rawls' Justice as Fairness is undoubtedly the most dominant one in contemporary western academics. One of the fruitful results in applying Rawls' theory to specific study domain derives from Norman Daniels' extension of it to the problems of health care. For Daniels, the main goal of health care is to maintain or restore human normal species functioning as possible. Since departures from normal functioning affect the normal opportunity range we may enjoy, and justice requires protecting opportunity, as suggested by Rawls' principle of fair equality of opportunity, we should owe each other in meeting our health needs, including providing health care. As to other social determinants of health, Daniels thinks that they should be governed by Rawls' difference principle.In contrast, few explicit discussions about the problems of distributive justice can be found in the philosophy of Confucius and Mencius. Though the concept of Yi was often used by them, it mostly means a criterion on the righteous of personal behavior. However, the problem of uneven distribution of wealth is still one of the main concerns in Confucian philosophy, as Confucius said that rulers should not worry about under population but about the possessions of their people have not been equally distributed to a certain extent. Moreover, Mencius thinks that taking care of the least advantaged in society, such as those widows, widowers, orphans and old without family, should be the foremost obligation of their rulers. He also thinks that the rulers should determine what means of support their people should have through the land policy he suggested, which aims at making the essentials of life available to all families in society, preventing undue possession of land by the riches and creating a just criterion for tax levying. The author of "the Operation of Rites and the Great Harmony" in the Books of Rites further developed Mencius' political thought and explicated that the political and social ideal of Confucianism is derived from its requirement of justice, and the author of "The Doctrine of Means" in the same book argued that for Confucian justice requires equality in fulfilling all kinds of beings, whether they are human or non-human, their own hsing feng, that is, requirements derived from their own essence, so that whether their hsing feng have been fully fulfilled can be served as a touchstone of whether they have been justly treated.The aim of this paper is to articulate Confucian conception of just health through its theory of justice just mentioned, with Norman Daniels' theory of just health as a framework of reference. Firstly, I offer an analysis on Daniels' theory. Secondly, I construct the Confucian conception of just health through an exegesis on its classics and contrasting it with Daniels' theory. Finally, I critically examine Daniels' theory from Confucian perspective.
