PBS Frontline Health Care Documentary
http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/pages/frontline/sickaroundtheworld/
Politicians have been talking about solving our health care crisis for decades, yet 47 million Americans are uninsured, tens of millions more are underinsured and 700,000 annually file for bankruptcy because they can’t pay their medical bills. The answers don’t have to be “socialized” medicine as the Republicans cry out each year to block any hope for progress.
To see how five capitalist democracies have guaranteed coverage for all of their citizens, and no one in their country goes bankrupt because of catastrophic medical expenses, view this excellent PBS Frontline documentary. We can fix our health care system…we simply need representatives in Washington who are committed to universal healthcare, and willing to work together to achieve this goal, once and for all!
This PBS documentary is an excellent comparison of health systems that are more effective and less costly than ours. It shows what can be done with a balanced approach to the economics of healthcare and a commitment to serve everyone. I’m delighted Harry Taylor is running for Congress. We clearly need a change!
Hi - I saw this Frontline documentary on health care around the world. Unfortunately, I neglected to note the speaker (author) and the title of his book. Can you help me? I would greatly appreciate it.
