california insurance commissioner says hundreds of millions of dollars are being spent that way. i wonder what your response is to that? >> i can respond briefly and say that california hospital association does not condone any fraudulent activity among hospitals in california we will let the facts speak to the case. we do not represent sutter. we do not represent them legally and we are not taking a position and legally. we do not know the facts. the facts will come out in the judicial system. supervisor campos: i agree with that. we have to allow the court proceedings take place, but we, as policy-makers, are being asked to make important decisions. one of the things that the complaint points out is a certain type of agreement, or agreements, between sutter and the insurance companies -- this is what the complaint says. "contains provisions which prevent health-care insurers, referred to as payers in the agreement, from challenging the reasonableness of the sutter hospital bill." this is accomplished through audit policies. these policies

what california -- california says, you know, we could have some problems like that, but they're going to monitor it in a way that wasn't monitored in the early 1990's. gwen: thank you, joan. this is a very confusing week, but we got it all in. the conversation has to end here, but it continues online on our "washington week" webcast extra. while you're there, check into the "washington week" vault where in 1994, we talked about another surprise special election that happened six months before congress changed hands. keep track of daily developments every night with me on the pbs news hour, and then join us again around the table next week on "washington week." have a good holiday weekend. good night. >> "washington week" was produced by weta, which is solely responsible for its content. >> funding for "washington week" is provided by -- >> he volunteered. >> we were drafted. >> she enlisted. >> off we went to asia. >> to europe. >> the gulf. >> to do our duetism >> serve our country. >> we were buddies. >> shipmates. >> best of friends. >> her dedication. >> the way he made you laugh.

california's share, $300 million. >> for this pot, it was competitive, lot of projects. >> the california high-speed rail authority plans to use the funds fooextend the central valley segment. diane feinstein said, no other state is as ready and able to lead the way in demonstrating high-speed rail. these funds will support thousands of new manufacturing, construction and technology jobs in california. california's high-speed rail system has $6.3 billion in funds in hands. >> some of that money will benefit existing passenger rail systems, including california. the money will be used to improve service in the northeast. the largest share, $795 million will help trains go faster between boston and washington d.c. amtrak will use $450 million to improve trip times between philadelphia and new york. in california, they will get $68 million for new rail equipment. >>> bay area airports, in a report, the statistics shows san jose airfare at $270. oakland $295, san francisco $381. the most expensative airport was new jersey, the cheapest, atlantic city's airport. >>> after careful evaluation and more than 20 proposals a company looking for a second home narrowed the list down to six. they are considering to expanding. gaten gate fields also nade maid the list, long with richmond field station. >>> it could be a sleepless night for one student. the white house selected it as one of three

california. california's unemployment rate dipped below 11%. the 11.9% figure was only one point below 12% in march. but this is the first time the jobless rate has gone down. california added 8,900 agriculture jobs. clothing companies across the board have been hit hard by rising costs and consumer cut backs. the dow lost 93 points, the nasdaq was off nearly 20. >>> the san jose sharks are back home for the play offs and getting a lot of fan support as the team goes for the stanley cup. there's a lot of energy here, nervous energy, tap into it next. >>> bay area weekend is here, temperatures are going to cool just a little bit in some neighbors, i will show you where that will happen and we're going to talk about a lot of coastal fog. free access to chase atm's wherever you are. that's a step forward. chase customers can avoid atm fees with over 16,000 nationwide. take a step forward and chase what matters. >>> caltrans hopes to have highway 50 in the sierra open again by midday tomorrow. it's been closed since may 11 as crews replaced a rock wall that had been deteriorating. we told you how snow was slowing down the work: but if it reopens tomorrow that will be thre

california. the numbers that you saw, risk adjusted in the commercial market, the differences you saw in southern california and northern california are real. i just wanted to reassure you that we have seen the same thing. when we look at our kaiser data and to our kaiser rate renewals, those costs are divided between northern california costs and southern california costs, and you see the same variation. there is no coherent rationale for why costs vary between facilities or side of service. as you pointed out in your remarks this morning, you could look at the same procedure in the same locale and see those prices vary from 2.5 to three times more between one facility and another in the same geographic area, and we have found no rationale that allows that to be explained. i want to pause here from my prepared remarks to talk about the colonoscopy benefits. you will probably hear about our hips and knees referenced by saying, and i'll be happy to talk about it, but also in the blue shield plan, we did implement a colonoscopy benefit, whereby if a member seeks their colonoscopy from an ambulatory surgery centers, they do not have

i sell two different entities in different counties in california. -- to different entities in different counties in california. it is in my off the shelf software to tommy when to charge -- to tell me how much to charge sales tax in which county. it is very easy. it is not a burden on any business that has a basic computer for retail. this helps level the field. the argument about how many affiliates might be lost -- nobody was there when all the brick and mortar stores went. how many bookstores have gone down the toilet because of this? tried by an wallpaper now in a store or looking for wallpaper. you cannot find it anywhere. the biggest supplier of barbecues, a basic thing for a lot of hardware stores or home centers -- it is amazon. it is a big deal. a lot of business has been lost on this. thank you. president o'brien: thank you. any further public comment? public comment disclosed. director, as it is now, we approve this legislation we drafted? >> it was initially presented at the retreat and there were some questions the commission had. the commission reviewed it but did not take any action and asked f

california, but none quite like this next one. stay tuned fgr it after the break. >> welcome back to "california country." you know, the great thing about living in california is it seems like just about anything can grow here. don't believe me? well, check out this next story as proof. so i've been working on this show for about 8 years now, and i am still amazed at all of the things that can grow here in california. including this guy. what the hech is this? any guesses? ok, here's a hint for you. it's crucial to jennifer bjorklund's job here at the dolphin bay resort in pismo beach. >> yes, people definitely comment on them. they like them. the fact that they're green, 'cause they're grown locally in nipomo, about 20 minutes away from here. >> so if you haven't guessed by now, we're talking about the luffa spge. believe it or not, but folks have been growing them for more than 10,000 years now. and today you can find a fresh batch of them ready for harvest at deanne coon's unique farm in nipomo. >> right now currently we have the 2 greenhouses going. and they're like raising little children, so you never know what you're going to get. one greenhouse may

california and southern california. in fact, in a recent article, the "los angeles times" reported that where hospitals in san francisco get on average $7,349 per patient per day, hospitals in los angeles county by comparison only receive $4,389. that is about $3,000 in difference. in san bernardino county, the figure is actually $3,931. both aetna inc. and blue shield say they charge higher rates to customers in northern california. they actually acknowledge that. then they do customers in southern california. aetna charges 30% more. blue shield says it charges up to 40% more. that comes directly from them. the issue becomes especially urgent, as the city has before it a proposal by one of the hospitals, by california pacific medical center, to build a 555- bed hospital in the cathedral hill. let me be clear -- the focus of this hearing is not that project. that project is going through the approval process and will duly come before the planning commission and the board of supervisors, and we, as members of the board, cannot prejudge that project, but we do need to understand what is happening in the context of this issue. cpmc is an affiliate of sutter health company, a hospital system that has 25 hospitals in the region, for which premium levels are assessed for san francisco. a number of news articles, many news articles, have cited their pricing power in the region as a major driver of costs, which, of cours

california professors. southern california is represented well here. happy to be here. i will be talking about health- care competition. the key themes i will be addressing, price competition can work in health care. has benefited california health- care consumers. that consolidation and other actions have reduced that competition and it has led to higher prices and increase spending as a result. policies are needed to restore competition, to the competitive structure of the health-care system. research shows that hospital price competition benefiting california health care consumers, in terms of increased efficiency, lower prices, and ultimately, lower health insurance premium growth. the way that health care price competitions, one of the main factors, that has been used by health plans representing consumers, employers, negotiate with health care providers selectively to negotiate their inclusion in health plans, and that one of the factors included in that negotiation is the price. so the ability of health plans to selectively contract from a range of different providers created this environment of price competition, which encouraged providers to compete both on price and cost efficiencies. that has held cost and pric

california voters put up 20%, the rest of the people in the united states and private industry and so on put up the 80% and california gets a high- speed rail system. some of the federal money that was bound for the rail in other states is heading to california. re-- denying by other governors means more money for the california rail and 160,000 jobs and the other up side is the environment. the united states creates 30% of greenhouse gases, and the rail would be electric run, deceasing the use of oil and smog production from cars and is and -- from cars and planes. >> so linking high-speed rail makes perfect sense, you can move people and goods through a system that takes out the time and inefficiencies and making better uses of resources. >> the airport communications director said the air port will will lose short haul transit and that means that less oil being used and better for the environment. >> another projected benefit would be to improve california's economic status. >> we have to catch up if we intend to continue to maintain our position as an economic leader in the world. and high-speed rail is the single most obvious way to accomplish that goal. >> even the high-speed rail comes to california it may not put the country on the f

california, an average being admitted or going to hospitals for more expensive procedures. >> that is all underlying this, and so is pricing. it may be that people in northern california actually use more services. i think the stock -- the dartmouth studies that were referred to earlier actually disprove that. in northern california, technically, we used fewer services. the uprising, i get as a comparison absolutely, but if that happens to be that people in san francisco are admitted and go to hospitals for more expensive procedures generic lid that would be more expensive here compared to in southern california, then the comparison is a little bit dated. >> i hear you. i will keep that in account. i did not think you could explain the 70% differential that way, just as i did not think you could explain it by cost of living and wages, which we know were higher in the north, but not that much higher. here is the other quotation that the chair use, saying that the price differential translates into premiums that they charge. supervisor campos: so they are admitting that. >> right. in aggregates, remember, they cannot tell us what they are paying to the providers. that is a problem for all of us. this next slide is about so- called class shift. this is a phenomenon that has been going on for a number of years. it re

california, perfect example, california is budget deficit of $25 billion. $10 billion a year goes to pay for illegal immigration issues, whether it's education, 1.4 billion that have goes to the health care costs of illegal immigrants. that's just the state of california. the medical program in california services about 780,000 people, illegal immigrants on that program. these are enormous costs, when the average person finds that out they say, why are my tax dollars subsidizing the activity of illegal immigrants in this country and that's why becomes a problem when -- in the debate. >> it's true, you got millions of illegal immigrants who are having health care taken out of their pay, wouldn't dare go to a doctor and use it. they are illegal. when you try to figure out how much -- >> that's not going to the government. >> -- how much they contribute that they don't use against how much they give, you don't know where you are. but you know what? i just have to say, first question was the right question, where are we are on immigration reform. about the last thing americans should be thinking about is the question posed here about what these immigrants if they came forward legalized in one fell swoop would mean for health care reform. for one thing, it

california where i own a dairy that produces that's distributed to four hundred stores are consumed by fifty thousand people every will hold in california you have a slightly different situation you look out for you along with three other states has a special relationship with the f.d.a. in the federal government in terms of what you're allowed to get away with actually with there's no relationship with the f.d.a. each state has and that's the point right now the state has their own set of laws which they actually treat robach separately so this fifty different laws for raw milk and united states of america so in california has always been legal for sale but very strict laws so we comply with those laws in california and freely distributed amongst stores and fifty thousand people every week that know that their children can't drink pasteurized milk because it's the most average unit food in america doctors prescribe against drinking pasteurized milk but raw milk is easily digested easily and not probably you know allergies are there's still a race going on even in a state like california when just a few months ago there was there was a dispensary i want to discredit because it's like it's like medical marijuana where in some states you have different legal situations i was going to rossum and it was actually illegal you brought in from ohio so that rahm across state lines we speak southern california and california that. obviously when after a very aggressively in raw milk if you're doing it legally not a problem so there they're really strict on raw milk across state lines so given the challenges faced

california's overcrowd prisons. what did the supreme court say? guest: in a 5-4 ruling, the supreme court upheld the population cap that courts in california put on the californiasystem because of the severe overcrowding and how that was contributing to the efficient health care, both medical and mental health, and was contributing to at least one prisoner dying a week. host: was the scope of the population in the california prisons? give us a sense of how crowded they are. guest: they are significantly crowded. they have a population between 140,000 to 150,000. the capacity is over 80% -- for 80,000 prisoners. they are significantly over capacity. that means they have tripled bunking, quadruple bunking. people are housed in areas that were not designed to house prisoners. that includes gymnasiums and cafeterias. there's very little room to move around. it is very tight in california prisons. host: by justices in the majority. which justice wrote the opinion? guest: justice kennedy. host: on what grounds? guest: the conditions in the california prisons had been extremely poor and unconstitutional for many years. the original suit -- there were two suits that we
