dr. emmanuel, the big headline, 24 million fewer with health insurance after a period after this.t is more than who were added to the rolls by obamacare. what's your reaction? >> well, by 2026, one in five americans are going to lack health insurance if this plan goes through according to the cbo, and lest americans think, oh, this is only people on medicaid or people who got obamacare, the cbo estimates 7 million people who have employer insurance today will lose coverage. if you're getting coverage through your employer, it's not guaranteed under this plan. the big positive news for the republicans sounds puny in comparison. all those people losing coverage and the deficit goes down $34 billion per year. this sounds like no home run at all for them, and a real albatross. one out of five americans, no health insurance, maybe that's acceptable in some places like texas, but i don't think across the country it's something we're going to find very tolerable. they also point out that the extensive coverage under this plan, what your insurance actually covers, is going to go down, so

dr. emmanuel, zeke emanuel from the university of pennsylvania, he said we have too many hospitals in the united states. he said there are about 5,000 hospitals. he said there are a thousand too many. he actually wrote a book about this after they wrote the health care law, and he said about a thousand too many, they need to close. well, if you're in rural wyoming or rural missouri, those hospitals are a long way from other places. and the first 80 hospitals have closed, and they are rural hospitals. fortunately not in my state, but in a number of states you've seen that, with numbers of rural hospitals closing. and when a rural hospital closes as a result of the obama health care law, the impact on a community is dramatic in terms of it being able to recruit nurses, doctors. but not just that, recruit businesses to the community. if there's not a hospital to recruit teachers to the schools. and i don't know if that's an experience or concerns you're seeing around rural missouri. mr. blunt: mr. president, you're seeing that, toorks where the critical needs hospitals, the only hospital ava

dr. zeke emmanuel, intimately involved in crafting the health care policy since his work on obamacare. obviously he and the president have some differing views on the best way to make health care affordable and accessible but the president also strongly believes that the health and well-being of the american people shouldn't always be a partisan issue and he will continue to reach across party lines and listen to voices on this issue. last week he heard from individuals and family who suffered from the disastrous results of obamacare, he's previously spoke on it health care policy groups, republican congressional leadership groups and he will have discussions on women in health care while continuing an open dialogue with members and congress. he will be hosting even more meeting and listening sessionless in the coming weeks as he works with congress to bring common forms to our health care system. the president is willing to hear from all stake holders in the health care field and he will continue to listen as the process on the american health care act moves along and we pursue the ad
