At Least According to … FierceHealthcare.com
By Staff Reporters
What do “Top Gun,” “The Terminator” and “West Side Story” all have in common with the healthcare industry? Each is parodied in videos that make the HealthcareFinance 2011 list of must-watch YouTube clips from the medical realm.

Deeper Value
Although each video–five in all–clearly has high entertainment value (for example, you’ll never be able to listen to Johnny Cash’s “Ring of Fire” in the same way again), some do have messages that go beyond the wackiness portrayed on the parody surface … to reveal a deeper more insightful truth or value!

Assessment of the Parody
“Many a true word is spoken in jest” and “Some truths, too painful or too likely to provoke, can be spoken only when the listener has been disarmed by laughter” are proverbial truths.
The idea appears to have been recorded first by Geoffrey Chaucer with the line, “A man may seye full sooth (truth) in game and pley” in his “The Canterbury Tales” (circa 1387).
In “King Lear” (1605), William Shakespeare wrote,”Jesters do oft prove prophets”; and some years later, the modern version was rendered in the “Roxburghe Ballad” (circa 1665): “Many a true word hath been spoken in jest.”
