Are People More Important Than Profits? How U.S. Health Care Got This Way and What We Can Do About It, Laurie Simons and Terry Sterrenberg, 7-Apr-2013
Licensed counselors and filmmakers Laurie Simons, MS, LMHC, and Terry Sterrenberg, MSW, LCSW, are a married couple of mixed cultural heritage. Laurie is Canadian, and Terry is American. From 1982 to 1992, Terry joined Laurie in Canada and during that time their two sons were born in a Calgary hospital. They moved to the Seattle area in 1992 and experienced the culture shock of switching from the worry-free health care system in Canada to the complicated, expensive, and anxiety-provoking system in the United States. In making this documentary they learned that the battle for national health care in both countries has been an adventure story, fraught with heroes and villains. And they learned how two neighboring countries ended up taking such drastically different paths.
