Summary

In 1962, a secret hospital committee in Seattle had the power to decide who lived and who died—literally choosing which patients would receive the world's scarce kidney dialysis machines. Their decisions created a national scandal that transformed American healthcare policy forever, establishing the principle that life-saving medical care should be a right, not a privilege determined by anonymous judges.
