Sick in America

John Stossel on healthcare

Edición de la obra Sick in America

Who is to blame for America's healthcare mess, and how can we fix it? In this ABC News program, John Stossel examines the insurance industry, the need for competition among care providers, and the possibility of combining lower costs with better medicine. Arguing against Michael Moore's documentary Sicko, which advocates government-funded healthcare, Stossel interviews Harvard Business School professor Regina Herzlinger, who takes aim at the legislative process as well as insurers and hospitals. Featuring doctors who have forged direct relationships with their patients by eliminating insurance middlemen, the program also spotlights Whole Foods CEO John Mackey and his company's innovative health savings account plans
