In response to My Sister with MS posted by MaryDeNeve:

It's a pity the USA did not enter into a reciprocal agreement (RA) with Australia on health care benefits. Instead, your pharmaceutical industry possibly tried to profiteer from the "Free" Trade Agreement (FTA)...and lost. The RA is available to visitors...depending on the visitors visa and country's agreement with us. It's not open for elective surgery etc but the ordinary, garden variety medical, hospital, pharmaceutical treatments either free or heavily subsidised.

RAs cover friendship between countries, FTAs deal with profit. And Sicko hasn't yet been advertised for screening here, but like all other moore movies, i'll see it when it does.
