Product Description

A timely and provocative documentary, this program explores the human side of the healthcare crisis in America. Focusing on the plight of the uninsured and other struggles in our healthcare system today, this program brings viewers face-to-face with modern healthcare policy dilemmas. Filmed at hospitals, in homes and at workplaces, this eye-opening hour features candid conversations with average individuals and their families and in-depth interviews with doctors, healthcare policy experts and ethicists. This program presents an overview of the healthcare debate and offers small steps that can be taken today to alleviate some of the suffering, and poses some of the long term questions we, as a nation, must face. Narrated by Blythe Danner, the program has a companion website at pbs.org/healthcarecrisis
