The Faces of Tenncare

I saw this chilling 13 minute documentary on the Documentary Channel tonight. It shows still pictures taken by Joon Powell with someone giving narration.

This is one of the saddest things I've seen in quite a while. This are all people who have been dropped by Tennessee's safety net health care program called Tenncare. Many were denied medicine and some were homeless as a result of having depleted their money trying to stay alive. Some have died. Their is an audio with the pictures at he link above in case you don't get to see it on TV.
