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 the health-care systems of other advanced capitalist democracies — UK, Germany, Switzerland, Japan, and Taiwan — to see what tried and tested ideas might help us reform our broken health-care system.

Journalist and author T.R. Reid, the film’s director, will lead a discussion following the 56-minute documentary.

Hosted by local health care activists Laird Cagan, Grace Fienberg, and Marsha Thorson
