The 38-minute film looks at the exorbitant cost of US healthcare from the perspective of business owners. It provides an in-depth look at how the current system suffocates business, discourages business start-ups, takes down companies when a few employees have high medical expenses, limits patient choice, can lead to bankruptcy, and demoralizes healthcare providers.

The film by Vincent Mondillo and Richard Master makes a compelling case for scrapping our complex, expensive system and replacing it with single-payer, national improved Medicare for all. Learn how single-payer can provide savings for individuals, families, businesses, and the US economy.

Panelists Dr. Margaret Flowers and film producer Richard Master, CEO of MCS Industries, will respond to your questions immediately following the film.
