The Line Starts at Midnight

from Better Odds

At 3:15 in the morning, a parking lot in Knoxville is already full of patients waiting for free care.In The Line Starts at Midnight, we meet Chris Hall and Remote Area Medical, an organization that transforms gyms, fairgrounds, and convention centers into temporary clinics offering dental, vision, and medical care.Originally founded to bring doctors into some of the most remote places on Earth, RAM now serves communities across the United States—where patients may drive hundreds of miles, sleep in their cars for days, or go without care entirely.It’s a story about extraordinary compassion, extraordinary need, and the Americans still falling through the gaps of the healthcare system.
