The paper aims to debate health care from an intercultural and secular perspective. The proposition of bioethics as interdisciplinary, from Potter to contemporary authors, brings a strong incentive to reflection on health care and the urgent need for dialogue between the knowledge involved in this area. Interculturality, as a possible approach in health, leads to the thinking that it is not possible to exercise the health care without relating it to other elements beyond the biological, such as historical, social, political, economic, religious, cultural, among others. A health care model can be constructed from the interpretation of a reality, which in turn, can also be constructed. Currently, the different health care models face the challenge of integrating with each other, based in the different knowledge, legitimizing an integral health care attention.
