SynopsisWe're going to need to run a few tests has become a common refrain in over-medicalized America. Are the barrages of expensive tests necessary? Are we really sick? Leading medical writer Lynn Payer presents a startling expose of how the health care industry profits from making us believe we are sick--at a tremendous toll in dollars and lives.
