You can watch it here.
Not even a hint of the crappiness of the mental healthcare system in any of the program. Meanwhile, the execs interviewed are advocating physicians and hospital admin take pay cuts. From the charts I've seen, administrators and execs in general take far larger checks home each week compared to physicians as a whole. Not once was there the mention of how much med school costs, how many working years go into our educations, the hours we work per week etc. Argh! 😡 I'd be willing to get paid a little less each year if the government were to do what every other government on the planet does and subsidize medical education / forgive loans for those who can get and did get into med school. Bottom line for all of this, though, is that people need to slow down with the high cost, unproven treatment methods Americans have come to expect in their healthcare. Not to mention actually putting money into preventative medicine and offering incentives for those who go that route. People do what offers incentives and avoid things that don't. (Makes recent cigarette taxes pretty helpful for down the line.) Ah, sorry to ramble on...
