Bill Moyers Journal. Diagnosing Health Care Reform

Your Playlist:

Description

After months of lobbying, grandstanding, and political theater, is there any real reform left in President Obama’s health care reform bill? In this edition of the Journal, Bill Moyers sits down with Wendell Potter, a former insurance executive turned public health advocate, who argues that all is not lost in the health care bill and details what he likes about the legislation. Moyers then speaks with Harvard Medical School’s Marcia Angell, one of the foremost champions of a single-payer nationalized health system, about why she thinks the debate over reform requires a fresh look at the economics and delivery of the care promised in the bill.
