"The Truth About MICRA" was written and produced by Rob Feldman and Keiko Johnson of Juris Productions. This 19 minute video was recognized in 2006 by the international Summit Creative Awards.

The Medical Injury Compensation Reform Act [MICRA] cap places restrictions on victim's recovery of non-economic damages. Established in 1975, MICRAs $250,000 ceiling in 1975 is currently worth $61,525. In today's dollars victims would need $916,025 to equal $250,000 in 1975 dollars. MICRA is particularly egregious to stay-at-home parents, low wage earners, the elderly, and children since these groups cannot demonstrate economic losses.
