Video: The Real Facts of Universal Healthcare

If Americans follow the healthcare facts, they will eventually be led to the certainty that universal healthcare is the best way to rein in costs, prevent medical financial ruin and boost our health.

Dr. Danielle Martin is one of those who remind us. She is the Associate Professor of Family and Community Medicine at the University of Toronto, co-founder of the Women’s College Hospital Institute for Health Systems Solutions and Virtual Care, and practicing family physician. She is the author of the bestselling book, “Better Now: 6 Big Ideas to Improve the Health of all Canadians,” which outlines feasible and affordable policies for improved health care, inspired by Martin’s patient stories and personal experiences.

In this video, she speaks at a 2014 Congressional hearing about single-payer health care and schools those peddling misleading information and outright misrepresentations.
