Customer Rating:      Summary: Do yourself a favor and watch this one Comment: If you don't like reading books, then at least view this documentary. I happen to think all of us need to continue to connect with others, to share our own experiences with the health care system and to try and change things for the better. While this documentary is far from perfect, it will get you thinking about how and why things have changed for the worse for so many people in America and why even those WITH insurance have problems getting reimbursed by their health insurance companies, have to fill out reams of paperwork again and again and get denied coverage for care that is critical for their survival, not "experimental" procedure, but good, decent care. If we're paying for it, why aren't we getting it? And for those who can't even afford health insurance, what solutions are possible?I'd also suggest you have a look at this:

Editorial Reviews:
|
In the United States there are an estimated 46 million people without health insurance. That's nearly one in six - and the numbers continue to grow. In the last documentary reported before his death, Peter Jennings reveals how the breakdown of the country's health insurance system threatens almost every American and all areas of American life: family, business and community. Who's to blame? It's not as simple as you may think.
