Dr. Richard Sturgess leads a team of compassionate doctors at a veteran's hospital. Along with Drs. Morgan, Handleman and Van Dorn, he fights to deliver adequate care to needy veterans in the face of funding cuts and a corrupt administration. To succeed, the staff may have to bend the rules and circumvent the villainous "Article 99," a bureaucratic loophole that prevents veterans from receiving the benefits they deserve.

Article 99 (conocida en Latinoamérica como Hospital de héroes) es una película dramática estadounidense de 1992 dirigida por Howard Deutch y escrita por Ron Cutler. Fue producida por Orion Pictures y protagonizada por Kiefer Sutherland, Ray Liotta, Forest Whitaker, John C. McGinley, Rutanya Alda y Lea Thompson. La banda sonora fue compuesta por Danny Elfman. El título de la película supuestamente se refiere a una escapatoria legal, que establece que a menos que una enfermedad esté relacionada con el servicio militar, un veterano no es elegible para los beneficios hospitalarios del Departamento de Asuntos de los Veteranos de los Estados Unidos.​
