health-care care system or foreign health care systems. so we have to understand, what are the definitions? what do we mean? when we say universal health care, single-payer, things like that? how do foreign countries do what they do? i think history, if i can brag about a profession, does a good job of providing accuracy in debates. so let's hope for that. >> history always helps. if the key is reforming private insurance, how can we go about doing that? well. >> we saved the toughest for last. >> the question of how you change a system when you have such a powerful economic investment, and how many people worked in the private insurance industry? if we went tomorrow to medicare for all as a single-payer government run system, how many people would be out of a job? one of the arguments for the system that i described was the high paying employment that it produced, and all the people who delivered the health care. as you probably know, our administrative costs for how we deliver health care are the highest in the universe, probably. we inve

and that is we have a health care system today, or, i should say, a health care nonsystem. what is the function today of the health care system? to make money. everybody knows that. what is the function of an insurance company? everybody knows that. so here is the story. with 87 million people uninsured or underinsured, with us spending twice as much as the people of any other developed country, last year, the top 10 drug companies made $69 billion in profit. and they made that profit because they charge us by far, by far, the highest prices in the world for the prescription drugs that we need. last month, i took a trip to canada with a bunch of folks in the midwest who are diabetic, and they needed insulin. we went to windsor, ontario, and we bought the same exact product in canada that is sold in the united states for 1/10th the price. 1/10th the price. and the reason we pay 10 times more than canadians for insulin is that not only do you have greed in the american prescription drug industry, the pharmaceutical industry, you have corruption and price-fixing. it turns out

if we are going to fix this issue in the united states, we need to move to a health care system that based on prevention. [applause] rep. ryan: that is about the business of reversing chronic disease, which accounts for three quarters of the health care costs in the united states, where we use prevention of food as medicine to reverse things like type 2 diabetes in the united states. that is a modern, new health care system that uni come of that we can build together -- you and i, that we can build together. and if we are going to fix the climate, the issue of global warming, we need to move from a monopolized industrial agricultural system to a system based on regenerative backulture that puts money in the hands of the farmers of the united states of america.

compared to high income countries so for example you pointed out in the in says that the 2 week health systems inability lack of vaccines resource constrains inability often of parents to get the children to a health facility for vaccination and then of course in the high income countries including germany we've seen that the small proportion of parents who are his attend and in some cases refuse to give vaccination to their children so it's always important to actually look at the context and to be very specific about the interventions because it's not a case of one size fits all you know that's a very good point to make in would assume it's easier. to try to tackle the problem of lack of resources. and it is maybe here in europe and in the united states north america where you have these anti-black scene movements i mean it's easier to fight a lack of resources than it is to fight misinformation would you agree. i think both situations have a different set of complexities so the increased resources you can strengthen your health system overnight or in many instances in low income countries y

to set up an electronic health records system to track health screening and care of individuals in d.h.s. custody. this system would recreate records that could be accessed by all the relevant d.h.s. components. the benefits of such systems are unmistakable. a migrant's medical information cannot get lost. there will be a clear system to track when any follow-up medication or medical attention is needed ensuring cases will not fall through the cracks. it will avoid duplication of medical service and time delays due to loss or incomplete medical records. as important, all the information gained from the initial medical screening will follow the children and adults as they are transferred to other d.h.s. components. even though apprehension numbers have recently declined, we must take the lessons learned from the poor handling of the recent migrant crisis to heart and drive performance improvements within d.h.s. h.r. 3525 represents a step in the right direction and as such, i urge my colleagues to support the legislation. with that, i reserve the balance of my time. . . the speaker pro te

we need to talk about how to fix the broken health care system because people are getting crushed. people are getting hammered. touredd the country -- the country and met with hundreds of folks. patients in their homes listen to them about how the health care systems devastated them, and it is a mess. i do not believe we are divided country and i do not think the choice is put before spy health care -- by politicians are the right choices. there is tremendous consensus and the consensus is that we need to address pricing failures. us after theilled flight they would be gouging us. if airlines did not have to show a price, you would simply fly, and then they would send you a bill, and they would be gouging all over it. that is what is happening in health care. it is ironic that hospitals are the center of scientific genius but we cannot give you a price, that is starting to change and it is the many disruptors who are starting to give optimism that is the reason why i wrote the book. host: we just heard from president trump back in may, in fact, we could see you right over his right
