I work in this field so I know I am intrigued to see the film. I know what I go through trying to advocate for patients on a daily basis so to get to see some of the bureaucratic things will add more pieces to my puzzle.

I'm glad to hear that people are liking the movie. I guess I will go to see it now so I know how to respond when people ask me about it. I work in the healthcare field so it is inevitable.

here is the ENTIRE movie.... http://files.filefront.com/sicko.avi.../fileinfo.html
though it is very one sided, it's a touching movie... I worked in the health insurance field for a minute, and I really don't think I could go back...

I love Michael Moore, so I'll definitely see this, though it might take me a minute to do so.

Moore hits snag on Wall Street promoting SiCKO
Michael Moore was barred from the New York Stock Exchange for an interview on his documentary on the US health-care system, a day after he was bumped from a national TV interview to make way for Paris Hilton.
Standing outside the Stock Exchange in Manhattan's financial district, Moore told reporters a planned interview with CNBC on the exchange floor was moved outside the building because the network told him the exchange would not let him inside.
On Wednesday, his appearance on CNN's Larry King Live was postponed for the first post-jail interview with Hilton, a reality TV star and hotel heiress. Moore is now scheduled to appear on the show on Friday night.
"Having been bumped from Larry King last night for Paris Hilton, I am beginning to take things personally," said Moore, whose film SiCKO which criticises corporate interests behind the US health-care system opens on Friday. "The priorities in this country are seriously askew."

After being the chair for 3 health FORUMS where I got physicians to present information beyond their allotted 15 minutes per patient, I have found that the quality of care and intention to treat is being decided by business individuals and not by trained healthcare professionals.
I have been jacked by the healthcare system and I am part of the system. All I know, is I harass by physicians with my own knowledge. I post often because complaints get put in your file. And when I have a problem, and they chose NOT to treat, they know they do not what to be sued by someone like me.
My folks are starting to have difficulty and my father is not doing as well as to be expected. Guess what I am going to have to do!
Oh well.
