LOS ANGELES, CA--Emily Cannon, is a young woman in the prime of life, the daughter of a registered nurse, and a former elementary school teacher whose life has ground to a halt since developing a chronic but treatable illness. She is being denied treatment by her insurance provider which would fix the problem and enable her to return to the active life she once enjoyed. Watch her story to see yet another example of the growing number of Americans (with insurance) being DENIED the care they need to make them better.

  • people in USA deserve universal health care system ...

  • And if a few thousand people suffer and die while the all powerful "invisible hand" works its marketplace magic, well, tough titty, is that about right? Monstrous.

    Half-wits like you that worship at the altar of unfettered, unregulated, capitalism (who, while claiming to be followers Adam Smith, quite obviously, either fail to understand, or intentionally misrepresent, the man's writings) are every bit as unreasoning and fanatical, as the most rabid Marxist.

  • its your onw fault dell with it god ever one in this world is crying to the goverment about everthing i mean back in the day were there was no mediecare they all right cause us savages are no to represent watch we are konow

  • USA people pay 7000 $ a year for every citizen on Health Care what they are getting 50.000.000 uninsured This is goverment number and they lie. Do they have the best care --- NO.

    People in USA are dumb as HELL - they are protesting Universal Health Care bill but when goverment bailed out BILLIONAIRES in Wall Street nobody was protesting. This is scary fact.

    USA people already paying for health care THEY are not getting it.

  • @aviomaster "people in USA deserve universal health care system" No they don't. They're too stupid to deserve it.

  • Hello Emily & viewers of this video, I have a request and as this moving story appears to be a good place to reach the people I'm looking for, I hope it's okay that I post here.

    I'm an actor & theatre practitioner in London, currently working on a verbatim project on the AMERICAN HEALTH CARE SYSTEM and needing willing participants to share their views & experiences. Please click my Channel for more info. I'm looking forward to hearing from you, Emily, or any page visitor. Thanks.

  • sounds very nice ,but no change whatsoever,because you still be insured and wouldnt get the treatment ,same as it is now in your case,besides who is going to pay for all this ?just make the insurance liable for their contracts that they close with people,thats all what it takes

  • i did not know the usa actualy has hospitals?

  • Poor Man Denied health Care in McCook

    seen on donze52

  • Ask yourself WHY is it that the pieces of SHIT at AIG get bonuses paid for by US Taxpayers? These insurance companies have HMOs that cause insureds to die. Have Preferred Repair Facilities that insureds and victims of insureds are steered towards and told LIES that IF they do not use PRF auto claim will NOT be paid. Plus Preferred Contractor Programs for property damage. Same insurer pays CEO $14 million! WTF for? These people FAILED and AIG and banks should go BANKRUPT. I am gonna be a PA.
