Marissa Blumenthal, M.D., has been assigned to uncover the cause of the spreading of a deadly virus across the United States. What she discovers is the mad plan of a group of doctors to undermine health maintenance organization (HMO) facilities by infecting unknowing HMO practitioners with the virus. The practitioners in turn pass the fatal and incurable disease on to their patients. Marissa is chased by several hit men while trying to find enough evidence to convince the authorities of the deadly scheme and stop the looming epidemic.
