Writing for the Committee on Jewish Law and Standards of Conservative Judaism, Rabbis Elliot N. Dorff and Aaron L. Mackler relied on among other verses, to find a duty to help see that our society provides health care to those who need it. Dorff and Mackler noted that the Rabbis found the authorization and requirement to heal in several verses, including according to which an assailant must insure that his victim is "thoroughly healed," and "And you shall restore the lost property to him." Dorff and Mackler reported that the Talmud read as giving permission physicians to cure.
