Series Description

The series provides a forum to examine the political, social and personal impact of changes in health care in the United States. It focuses on stories that affect us all--the cost of growing old, of nursing home care and, as we live longer, the challenge of staying healthy. Each edition of "The Health Quarterly" features "The AIDS Report," an update on the major health crisis facing the world today. Hosted by Peter Jennings.

Program Description

This hour magazine format program includes two segments: "Doctors and Dollars," "The Health Update: Promises & Reality," and "The AIDS Report: A Hidden Risk."

Are you your doctor's profit center or patient? In "Doctors and Dollars" THE HEALTH QUARTERLY looks at the business of being a doctor. "The AIDS Report" will explore the link between sexual abuse and the spread of the AIDS virus among women. In the debut of a new regular segment, "The Health Update," an in-studio panel will debate the likelihood that President-elect Clinton will be able to keep all of his campaign promises to reform our health-care system.
