| Description: | Four in five Americans say the U.S. health-care system needs fundamental change. Can the U.S. learn anything from the rest of the world about how to run a health-care system, or are these nations so culturally different from us that their solutions would simply not be acceptable to Americans? FRONTLINE correspondent T.R. Reid examines first-hand how other advanced capitalist democracies - the United Kingdom, Japan, Germany, Taiwan and Switzerland - deliver healthcare and what the United States might learn from their successes and failures.
This screening is a part of the VCU Libraries and USC&A MCV Summer Documentary Series. |
