we'd have chronic care management. we know how to do this, you know. so to timothy's point, we have huge gaps, and it's because we don't have our eyes on the prize. we're not paying attention to this. our whole medical system is paying attention to things that we pay for. why? because that's where the dollars are. and until we get that to change, we're still going to have people fall through the cracks because there's a lot of cracks in the system. >> patrick's absolutely right. i would adjust one interesting little story and insight into what the caller mentioned. so if you look, about 39% of those who take their life every year come through an emergency department, have been seen in an emergency department, and either their risk has been missed, so there's not good screening, or their risk is there, but they have no place to put them. there's no beds. so they board them until you're feeling a little better now, right? and out on the street. so there's a real opportunity, let me put it that way, to do a better job in terms of alternatives to just hosp

adams, what stops people from taking care of chronic dental issues? it's not that they've stopped, many of them have been dealing with these issues for years, and years, and years. it's exhausting, it can wear you down. also, that you start running out of options. they've tried many, many things, none of it has worked. they become hopeless, and they become resigned to just living with these issues. - and this is obviously a very personal decision. and ul a factor. i mean, there are always children that have to be taken care of, there are elderly parents that might need care. these people with these dental issues also have really big hearts and many of them are focused on taking care of other people. - yeah, that is a great point, but i think ultimately, it's an investment in your own health and that totally affects your ability to help your loved ones. - absolutely it is, it's about you. (upbeat music) - if you've got these or other questions, you don't have to wait, visit the website or call the number on your screen. take that no-obligation first st

we have community systems of ,are, coordinated care community support systems, chronic care management know how to do this. we have huge gaps, and it is because we don't have our eyes on the prize. we are not paying attention to this. our whole medical system is paying attention to things we pay for because that is where the dollars are. until we get that to change, we will still have people fall through the cracks. guest: that is absolutely right. i would add one little story and insight into what the caller mentioned. about 39% of those who take their life each year come through an emergency department, have been seen, and either their risk has been missed, or their risk is there, but they have nowhere to put them. you are feeling a little better now, right? out on the street. tore is a real opportunity do a better job in terms of alternatives to just hospitalization. some people need it, and they need to be at an inpatient facility, but we need better outpatient support. so you leave that emergency department without any short-term intervention, yet there are things that could help

chronic shortages. shortages put patient care at risk, and it means standards of care are falling.s. it means women are turned away from maternity units because we're short of 3,500 midwives. it means cancer diagnoses are delayed because of shortages in the cancer workforce. he will have seen the chief secretary's comments yesterday at his select committee saying that a spending review is now unlikely for 2020—21. that means new funding for training, new funding for health education england, and new funding for capital investment for public health and social care won't come on the stream until 2021 — two years away. 52,000 more clinical staff in the last nine years, almost 16,500 more doctors, and over 17,000 more desks on our wards. he laid out a list of promises he would like to see, but with little detail and no means to pay for them. i welcome the nhs interim people plan because workforce is the greatest challenge across all four health services. but the 41,000 nursing vacancies in nhs england are simply a patient safety issue and cannot be parked on some shelf or in the long g

another conversation around health care that recognizes that 75% of the health care cost in the united states are from chronic diseases that are largely preventable. 75%. if we are going to fix the health care system, we have to put this thing from a disease care system, a sick system, where we wait for people to get sick and then dumped money into it, and then wonder why cause are going up, and we spend 2.5 times more than anybody else in the industrialized world and get worse results. let's flip the system and reward doctors for keeping us healthy. rebates for staying or getting healthy. half the country today, adults, almost half have diabetes or prediabetes. the cost to the health care system, 2.3 times as much as a nondiabetic. i don't care if we are single-payer, private health, fee for service, out-of-pocket, v.a. care, i don't care what we are talking about -- that system is going belly up in years, if half the country has diabetes or prediabetes. now we are realizing that you can actually use food as medicine. who knew? right? but there are private programs -- pilot programs out there where they lite

these are critical components. 75% of our health care costs in the united states are from chronic diseases $2 trillion to $3 trillion a year. so my health care plan is make sure we get everybody covered. mental health, addiction, all of these critical issues facing people today. but let's flip this system and get people healthy. you want to knock the knees out from the pharmaceutical industry? let's all say, how do we get a little more healthy in the united states so we don't need the damn pharmaceutical system. we save that money for people who are really sick. and can't change that for -- through their diets or other things. the money should be reserved for those people. get out of the disease care system and move it to health, food and take care of our soil. >> congressman tim ryan. >> thank you. >> thank you very much for tonight. thank you all for joining us. stay right there. still ahead, congressman eric swalwell will join us at the top of the hour. my buddy jim sciutto takes over next. we'll be right back. thanks, everyone. allergies with sinus congestion and pressure? go to the ph

two of the most difficult issues to combat in health care are, one, managing chronic diseases like heart disease and diabetes, and, two, addressing social determinants of health like hunger and poverty. the statistics are shocking. 80% of older americans have at least one chronic disease. 77% have at least two chronic diseases. and five million seniors in our country face hunger. that's where medically tailored meals come in. these meals are customized to address the person's specific health care need. think of to heart-healthy meal for a heart disease patient. or a low-sugar one for a diabetic. these meals not only help reduce the reliance on costly pharmaceuticals, they can help lower overall health care costs, improve health and alleviate hunger. take a study done by the massachusetts commonwealth care alliance, which showed the people receiving medically tailored home deliver idea meals fewer e.r. visits and fewer hospital readmissions. that saves the consumer on co-pays and out of pocket costs and it saves the hospital insurance provider like medicare even more on needless emergency

it was on chronic pain and it was for primary care doctors.ot bad. they urged caution and they urged a weighing of cost and benefit. what was unfortunate is that some doctors and healthcare systems and insurers and states and state medical boards, they tended to misinterpret those guidelines as a mandate to decrease dosing, again, in chronic patients, people with intractable pain who have been on these medications for years, sometimes decades and doing well. and the guideline was interpreted as a mandate to either decrease those doses, below a threshold that was inlociaintolerable for some bece their pain reemerged. it was and still is a disaster for so many people in chronic pain. and that's why we wrote the letter. i wrote the letter with a number of colleagues and to the credit of the cdc, they did issue a letter to us clarifying their intent, which was we want no one to be forced off their medications. no one to be taken off without their consent. assuming it's working well. and then two weeks later they published the same basic message in

with health care professionals to improve safe prescribing practices and minimize diversion by encouraging people to use resources like the cdc guideline for prescribing opioids for chronic pain. i want you to understand, it's important that we decrease opioid prescribing because we still prescribe 90% of the world's opioids to less than 5% of the world's population. that's still the case right now, even though we've decreased opioid prescribing by 22%. but we also have to remember that this started as a crisis of untreated and undertreated pain. physical and emotional. 62% of people who misuse opioids say they misuse them to treat pain. so we can't just pat ourselves on the back for decreasing opioid prescribing if we aren't also measuring what we're substituting back in to treat that physical and emotional may pain. so critically important that we remember that. and it's also important that we remember our history. so surgeon general has been fighting tobacco use for a long time. i collect medical journals. i've got journals where there are doctors smoking cigarettes and saying nine out of ten doctors prefer camels, and they recommended camel to women for all sorts of

week we see people developing long term chronic diseases related to air pollution and i think the other part of red which doesn't get much attention is the health care costs so the economic impact on people's pockets than some people have to move outside the city and you know you've behind the economic opportunities in winter in delhi i think the meal in may where the greek people you know missed their flight or get home hours and hours after they were supposed to because air pollution is really you know preventing flights from landing or leaving but there are all kinds of impact both on health and you know our day to day life that really air pollution is bringing and it is you know terrifying in some cases i want to share a couple more stories just gotten so many of them this is on twitter who says i've lived there for some time and you can check black things in your nose and on your skin there's also a layer of black pollution sometimes when last time i visited delhi after living for years in the village my eyes were itching because of pollution and we also got a comment live on you tube and i want to share this with you because this is pretty str

affordable care act otherwise known as obamacare, especially to protect people who had been ill once before or had been injured once before, people who have a preexisting health condition, maybe a chronic condition that will require medical care throughout their lives. and in the old days where apparently the republican senator wants to return, there were all sorts of abuses, i would argue, that insurance companies could employ in order to limit their exposure, if you will. so they had annual limits. they had lifetime limits. they had the capacity to drop somebody from coverage after an illness developed. they had the capacity to say no, we're not going to offer you insurance. they had certainly the capacity to charge discriminatory premium based on the preexisting condition. and that causes great concern. i just saw recently a report about how much typical -- i don't want -- a woman with a breast cancer diagnosis who requires chemotherapy and radiation treatment and medication, how much she would be anticipated to spend out of pocket if she had a junk plan at the time that that diagnosis was made. and it was on average $40,000. $40,000. so we also need to talk about another impact tha

more research is needed to help clinicians and other care providers provide the necessary treatment before symptoms of ptsd become chronic. we must, we must do more for those who have sacrificed their lives for our freedom. we cannot let them fall through the cracks. that's why my amendment is so critical. with more of our troops returning from deployment everies -- deployments over the next several years, we know the number of pst cases in the u.s. -- ptsd cases in the u.s. is going to increase. today, only 40% of service members find relief from current treatments. in the defense health programs, they provide crucial medical research to provide innovative solutions for service members and family members facing ptsd throughout our nation. as many may have seen, just on sunday night, there are a number of innovative solutions like s.g.b. that are currently being investigated, and can be considered game changers in ptsd treatment. so by investing in new groundbreaking technologies and therapies and trials, this will bring hope to service members who have tried current treatments but have found that nothing works. my amend
