America’s “Sickcare” System - Profits Over Patients?


ID : 2335   

« back to classes page
ClassGraphic Americans are unhealthier than ever. Life expectancy is falling. Chronic disease is rising. And, despite spending more on healthcare than any other nation on Earth, Americans are getting sicker, not healthier. Meanwhile, mega corporations in the pharmaceutical, food, and health insurance industries continue to generate billions in profits, and are among the  largest spenders on advertising, contributors to university research, and lobbyists in Washington. We will critically examine the incentives and motivations that drive America’s healthcare policy. Is it time for a second opinion? Please bring an open and curious mind.
