Every country has its dark side. Before watching this documentary, my understanding of American medical care was limited to a few words from my neighbor (his daughter works in the United States, and he compliments him every time he sends him health care products). That is to say, I never thought that ordinary people in the United States would be so helpless when faced with medical care. I never thought that there would be hospitals in the United States that would refuse emergency treatment to children with high fever, so that the little angel passed away like this. I think there should be no such evil hospitals in China. It never occurred to me that when the doctor faced a patient with two broken fingers, the first thing he did was not perform debridement surgery, but told him how much it would cost to attach this finger and how much would it cost to attach that finger.
In China, everyone talks about the benevolence of doctors. This kind of benevolence should be possessed by every medical worker. I think this kind of benevolence knows no borders, but what are the American doctors in the documentary doing? Such a medical system will only allow insurance companies to make a lot of money and allow the elites of the United States to obtain high-quality medical resources, but what about ordinary people? I think health care reform is not about making health care completely free (because it's unrealistic), but about making it affordable for the poor.
A good country should not let its citizens suffer in housing, healthcare and education. A good country should not let its citizens feel helpless.
