Money and Medicine

Money and Medicine

Running time: 85 mins

Everyone agrees health care costs are out of control - how do we stop it?

No matter where you stand on the new health care law, one thing is indisputable - medical costs are soaring out of control. Two time Oscar-nominated director Roger Weisberg illuminates the crisis by focusing on the abuses of the system while also examining promising programs which control the rampant spending plaguing our country.

Using heart-wrenching personal dramas, Weisberg insightfully puts a human face on unnecessary procedures that may do more harm than good.

An eye-opening account of an unrestrained system feeding on itself, Money and Medicine not only enlightens, but also gives hope that it is not too late for us to afford the quality medical care we deserve.
