[Poll] Should access to traditional medicine be a right?

Whether you agree or disagree with traditional medicinal practices in todays "modern world," access to health has been agreed worldwide among international leaders and civil societies that health is not a privilege but it is a right. However, in many modern day societies, the right to health is not extended beyond the realms of modern medical services and to many people this is a form of discrimination.
In my country, Canada, people are "free" to chose whether to visit a modern medicine clinic or a traditional medical practitioner, but only visits to the modern medical professional will be paid for by the government. To me that's discrimination because the right to health should not privilege one kind of medical practice over another.
What do you think?
Access to health means...
Traditional medicine only

Traditional and Modern medicine together

each person should be given the right to choose what approach is good for them given the right choices and informed of its advantage and disadvantages!

you are right at some extent.
Traditional system has evolved ffrom centuries and practicing community uses it when required. I Think in modren time that is best alternative.
