This documentary explores the changing world of American medicine and the controversial money and medical issues surrounding the rise of HMOs. The new market approach to health care has halted skyrocketing health costs - but what's been the impact on doctors, nurses and patients?

FRONTLINE goes inside one of the biggest and most aggressive HMOs, Foundation Health Systems, to see the philosophy of for-profit managed care at work. CEO Malik Hasan is an outspoken champion of managed care's principles and argues that managers with their eyes on the bottom line are improving patient care.
