Four in five Americans say the U.S. health care system needs fundamental change. Are there lessons we can learn from health care systems around the world? A new PBS Frontline film, Sick Around the World, explores how other industrialized countries deliver health care and what the United States can learn from their experiences. Reported by T.R. Reid, a longtime foreign correspondent and now Rocky Mountain bureau chief for the Washington Post, this hour-long film looks at health care systems in five countries – Taiwan, Japan, Germany, Switzerland and the United Kingdom. Along with several other funders, The Colorado Trust provided underwriting support for this film, which first aired on April 15, as well as outreach support to Rocky Mountain PBS. You may now view this film online.
