i've been in the healthcare working in healthcare for 36 years and i can tell you, it's not a rational system. if we had had a single-payer system like we do in every other industrialized country in the world, we would not be spending as much and we would be covering everybody. they don't want to hear that. they want to take this country and build a wall around it as far as how anything is done anywhere else and in that case it's done better. the outcome is better. all the indices indicate that they have better health in france than we do. our life expectancy, as you pointed out for people in working-class and middle-class is actually going down. i think that's because of this persistence on linking healthcare with employment. it just doesn't work. why should we have, we had 24 vice presidents. how does that enhance the healthcare of the people that i serve working there. >> you're absolutely right. that is the core issue. this is but teddy kennedy, they went to the mat with richard nixon about this back in 1962. it's what bernie sanders was all about. frankly, i think we are moving in

and healthcare costs come down when people have more control and no more about what their healthcare costs are. when donald trump becomes president of the united states, we are going to empower americans with not only greater control over healthcare choices but also empower them with more information about the cost and quality of care in their hometown. today people have very little transparency in cost or quality of their care. it is easier to compare prices when you are buying a car or a television than when you're trying to decide which hospital or doctor to use. donald trump is going to fix that. when donald trump becomes president of the united states we will advance reforms to allow americans to see the cost of their care and have the power to make their own choices in healthcare and healthcare providers in position, treatment and costs. there will be more options and more information. just the way the free market works healthcare providers will be more responsive with their answers to patients needs in a competitive marketplace and a lot more responsive than they are to insura

each time they did them their voting to take healthcare away from 22 million americans. to strip vertically important consumer protections from people that prevent them from being discriminated against because ever pre-existing condition or pain more because their woman. those that don't just benefit those who got healthcare when it came into effect but that 100 or hundred 50,000,000 americans who have access to health care through their employer. these are the kind of decisions that the incoming administration and congress will be challenged to make. >> you know these things will continue -- >> the first is this administration will be committed to implementing the policies through january twentieth. we will look to the commitments we have made in each of those areas as we do so. second, there is a tradition, particularly with executive agreements with successive presidents preserving preserving some element of continuity. i don't know if that will plan this case. as a part of this effective, smooth transition, president obama will be able to talk with president-elect tr

what we call an integrated healthcare system. it's a system that includes va healthcare providers and clinics as well as leverages, expertise from the private sector. unlike many other healthcare entities in the united states that are limited by their geographic markets, so if you are starting a clinic it's -- what you actually do is patients come to you. va is completely opposite. we go to where the patients are, where the veterans live, and our veterans live in every corner of the united states, some highly rural and some -- some highly rural places, some highly urban places but they span the entire geography of america. in those circumstances we cannot have a brick and mortar facility in every one of those individual locations and so we have to leverage community partnerships and they really are about partnerships not just the purchase of care, partnerships that allow us to provide healthcare to veterans in those areas. so at the end of the day what we want to do is build an integrated healthcare network and i know that the al

premiums are going up because healthcare costs are going up and healthcare costs are going up because we have more sick people who come in and we haven't had enough healthy people come into the marketplace. that's the basic faskt. that's why insurance premiums go up. and let's repeat, the fact that insurance companies have had record enrollments, record profits and they have plummeted, their stocks have plummeted in response spot election of trump because he's going to disrupt the market and no one knows where it's going because we don't want mandate but we want everyone with a preexisting condition insurance. that will only drive prices up more because healthy people will not buy insurance. you want to see a big increase in your insurance prices, just follow the fact that we swroent a mandate but we'll ensure everyone who has a preexisting condition. that will destroy the insurance market. >> we're already going to see premiums go up. we know that from the white house, right? the government came out with the report three weeks ago to tell us that they're going up on average 25%. >> n

that defeats the purpose of having healthcare. now we are paying premiums in employer are paying premiums for deductibles and it's not being getting their money's worth out of it because people were not going to the doctor. we discovered this through our own workers. i've my own people tell me that. so yet, we can up with a solution of raising the deductible to $2000, raising the : insurance 270-30 and raising the top eight-top out-of-pocket 268-53 at having the hra hsa cover the first 2000 basically deductible. that weight should solve most of our members concerns, lower to keep the cost down for the employer and was kind of a win-win for everybody. we all discussed it and we all happy we came up with something bounced everything up. met all of our needs could so actually was a very good consensus. we were able to find a win-win women all the way around for everybody and that was our recommendation based on meeting everybody's needs. i represent a group of women predominately women group several hundred members at the airport tha

when discussing healthcare for veterans. title 38 of the united states code, the authority that governs the delivery of va benefits, including healthcare, protects veterans through due process provisions medical malpractice, congressional oversight and acrypted representation at no cost. but what many do not know is that title 38 protection do not follow the veteran who opts for care under the choice act. congress will not have the jurisdiction to compel testimony from private sector ceos whose healthcare systems are found to have gained the numbers or have hidden wait lists. maybe we're wrongly assuming it never happened. moreover, veterans will have to rely on the courts for redress if health care goes away. in absolutely must be addressed. as long as the veterans know that's the reality, we've given them not just a choice but an informed choice beyond simply hoping for the best. if they chose va for their healthcare it needs to be a viable choice. thank you.

american healthcare may be racing down the drain. but not my party panel. harris faulkner, and we have michael malice. and democratic strategist steven sigmund. it's so nice to have you here. are you going to admit it was obamacare that leveled the fatal blow to hillary clinton's presidential aspirations? >> it didn't help. politically getting rid of obamacare will help democrats in the long run it's been an enormous albatross around them. from a policy perspective. i disagree the with the notion that throwing 20 million people off of healthcare. kennedy: i don't think he was saying that. he was talking about a transitional program. >> i think you are sort of one cancer diagnosis or traffic accident away from bankruptcy. >> but you bring up the idea of a traffic accident. on some level perhaps every insurance company is not morally obligated to cover every person who comes to them. if you get in feanlder bender and you have insurance, can you call geico? >> maybe you would have been able to under the hillary clinton administration. this was intentional. whe
