Documentary look at health care in the United States as provided by profit-oriented health maintenance organizations (HMOs) compared to free, universal care in Canada, the U.K., and France. Moore contrasts U.S. media reports on Canadian care with the experiences of Canadians in hospitals and clinics there. He interviews patients and doctors in the U.K. about cost, quality, and salaries. He examines why Nixon promoted HMOs in 1971, and why the Clintons' reform effort failed in the 1990s. He talks to U.S. ex-pats in Paris about French services, and he takes three 9/11 clean-up volunteers, who developed respiratory problems, to Cuba for care. He asks of Americans, "Who are we?

Sicko is a 2007 documentary film by American filmmaker Michael Moore. The film investigates the American health care system, focusing on its health insurance and pharmaceutical industry. The film compares the for-profit, non-universal U.S. system with the non-profit Universal Health Care systems of Canada, the United Kingdom, France and Cuba.

From Academy Award-winning American filmmaker, author, and liberal political commentator Michael Moore comes a shocking documentary that sheds light into America’s health care system and how it fares to other nations such as Canada, the UK, France and Cuba. I just watched this documentary film the other night and you wouldn’t believe how twisted and crooked health care systems can be. Nominated (Academy) and winner of numerous prestigious awards (receiving a 15 minute standing ovation at the Cannes International Film Festival), and the third highest grossing documentary film in box office history, (his other documentary, Fahrenheit 9/11, holds first place), this documentary explores how health care systems around the world greatly affect the lives of so many individuals. I highly recommend that everyone watch this film.
