Money Driven Medicine - A New Documentary June 11, 2009

Produced by Alex Gibney (Enron: The Smartest Guys In the Room and Taxi to the Dark Side), this 90-minute documentary explores how a profit-driven health care system squanders billions of health care dollars, while exposing millions of patients to unnecessary or redundant tests, unproven, sometimes unwanted procedures, and overpriced drugs and devices that, too often, are no better than the less-expensive products they have replaced. In remarkably candid interviews, both doctors and patients tell the riveting, sometimes funny, and often wrenching stories of a system where medicine has become a business. Admission is free.
