The Catholic Church is the largest (and arguably the best organized) single denomination in the United States, and it has extensive holdings in the health care field. It therefore has a material stake in the current debate over health care reform, as well as a moral interest in a question touching on the ethics of resource distribution. The position of the church on health care is analyzed as a case study of how organized religion interacts with and attempts to influence social policy in a pluralistic society.
天主教会是美国最大的（也可以说是组织最完善的）单一教派，并且在医疗保健领域拥有大量资产。因此，它在当前关于医疗保健改革的辩论中有着重大利益，同时在涉及资源分配伦理的问题上也有着道德关切。教会在医疗保健方面的立场被作为一个案例研究，用以分析有组织的宗教在多元化社会中如何与社会政策相互作用并试图影响社会政策。
