The present study aimed to examine upper documents and laws of the Islamic Republic of Iran regarding the right to health and the patient's rights.

The research steps in this study included sampling using the total number method of nine upper documents and the law of the Islamic Republic of Iran. Three units, namely text, counting, and analysis, were considered to ensure the accuracy of receiving the content. After coding, construction, and analysis of the category, semantic units in each upper document were extracted.
Results: A total of 162 codes were extracted from the nine official upper documents and laws of the Islamic Republic of Iran related to the health of individuals and the rights of patients. Their semantic units included prevention (27 units), supportive (39 units), servicing (27 units), caring (13 units), special groups  (4 units), and strategic (31 units).
