60 Minutes to air special on uninsured patients
March 2, 2006 — 7:01pm ET
Tools
A 60 Minutes special on Sunday looks into allegations that hospitals overcharge the uninsured. CBS's Dan Rather returns as the host of the investigative report. The show profiles the head of Consejo de Latinos Unidos, the activist group that has accused hospitals in the Los Angeles area of unfairly raising their prices. The episode airs Sunday at 7 pm ET. This brings to mind the old line that if it wasn't for the healthcare industry, 60 Minutes would have to be called 30 Minutes.
