FIX IT: Healthcare at the Tipping Point

A film will be shown free March 20th @ 3:00 at the Big River Theatre in Alma.
The film is less than an hour and we will have time for Q&A after.
The Great Northern States Health Care Initiative is sponsoring this event sharing the documentary film: “FIX IT: Healthcare at the Tipping Point”.
We have, along with many others around the nation, been spending decades looking for ways to improve access to health care, reduce costs for patients and find ways to make sure all citizens can get the health care they need without going bankrupt and without it depending on what job you have.
With all the political talk going on about this topic this film brings a unique perspective. It comes from the business view on how it affects the company and their employees.
This film illustrates in straight-forward fashion the fiscal case for reform. It comprehensively explains the problems of--and provides the solutions to--the dysfunction that plagues the healthcare payment systems in the U.S. Our healthcare sector is eating the rest of the U.S. economy alive. But we can and will wrestle this runaway freight train to the ground by embracing internationally recognized "best practices" for health system design.
Richard Master, a Corporate CEO and the Executive Producer of the Fix It movie writes:
There...”is a solution to the runaway costs, and the increasingly restrictive lack of access to needed care in the U.S. healthcare system.”
We want to invite all to come and want to thank Big River Theatre for hosting this film. (voluntary donations to them to help cover utility costs will be appreciated).
