ensure all americans including those heading in us territories access to affordable and quality healthcare areafamily as is often the case with the federal government's treatment of american, similar to northern mariana islands, guam, puerto rico and the us virgin islands, us it is and nationals living in the insular areas do not receive the same services and benefits afforded to the rest of the american people. that's a very sad fact that we need to address. american citizens living in our territories are too often overlooked, mistreated and forgotten and the government services of them depend on are treated similarly. territories commonly experienced higher rates of poverty and state and in many cases our territories been on medicaid even more than our states. for example, and in american samoa because private health insurers refused to provide the island healthcare coverage, medicaidis their only option . sadly, due to significant shortfalls in federal medicaid funding, territories face serious challenges finding the funding needed to support medicaid coverage for all those who depend on it.

healthcare system. what you make of this? >> total bs. there is no area where capitalism has failed to deliver the goods at the lowest price possible. i'll go right back to her example, healthcare. we have a free market in healthcare but it's in classic surgery. what has happened with prices and plastic surgery? that come down versus inflation. it's the only area of healthcare where prices have come down. i have not prices come down in the rest of healthcare? there's not capitalism. it's one of the most regulated industries in the u.s. between the hospitals, insurance companies, the ama licensing from the rest of it. there's not capitalism in healthcare. if there was a free market in healthcare, you see the lowest prices and best service in any part of the world. >> with respect to you from using plastic surgery i think is a red herring because it's a discretionary, relatively, not always but often discretionary purpose, small part of the overall office. i think number one, i agree that this will talk about socialism is kind of dumb. most people don't und

there might be an area where he's a little stronger and that's the area of healthcare.eople know him. they -- >> the fact of the matter is, healthcare is personal to me. obamacare is personal to he me. when i see the president try to tear it down and proposing to replace it and start over, that's personal to me too. we've got to build on what we did. every american deserves affordable healthcare. lauren: did he strike the right cords there? >> no. i mean, let's talk about obamacare. what is biden going to do? is he going to distance himself from what was the signature healthcare accomplishment of the obama, biden administration, so he has to embrace it in some way. it's flawed and everybody knows it's flawed. instead of saying let's come up with something that's workable, he says let's take a crummy system and let's try to build on it. it's going to be a majo major ie for him. i think he's right not to embrace the medicare for all. which the polls show is not something that most americans favor. but by the same token, people aren't loving obamacare either and he's going

>> what i'm seeing in iowa is healthcare, particularly in rural area. ave talked about how democrats have lost some ground in rural america. it is true because democrats are not talk about the bread and butter economic issues enough. in a universal healthcare approach that includes mental healthcare, that's music to the ears of a lot of rural iowans who want to get the kinds of services they haven't seen in quite a while. that's number one. the tariffs, i met with farmers in webster county and green county, iowa, a few weeks back. and they told me -- i remember this vividly -- that they think they may never be able to sell to china again, soybean farmers. they may never be able to sell to china again as a result of this trade war and this tariff battle, and that is devastating. it scares them deeply. so we have got a situation now where folks are actually quite insecure about their quality of life and what their economic future is going to be, particularly in rural iowa. those are the front burner issues. when i talk about things like don't you think the

the committee has identified several important areas where we can make the healthcare system work betterand cost los for patients. on each of these, we stand ready to work with you. i surprise medical billing, bottom line is that we must protect patients from surprise medical bills and we support the federal legislation to do so. protecting patients is limiting their cost. and keep them out of any subsequent negotiations. once a patient is protected, providers and payers should be allowed to determine a fair and appropriate reversal. the committee put forward in this discussion draft, three options. the endnote guarantee our network matching approach would acquire is only based contract with every plan for which the facility hamza contract. this approach interferes with the fundamental relationship between hospitals and their physician partners. his overly limits the negotiating terms. particulate heart for rural areas that are already challenged to recruit practitioners. we believe health plan should not be exalt of their core function of establishing provider networks and negotiating r

the committee has identified several important areas where we can make the healthcare system work better and cost less for patients on each of these we stand ready to work with you. on surprise medical bully we must protect patients from surprise medical bills and the federal legislative solution to do so. protecting patients means limiting cost-sharing as a draft legislation does and keep the amount of oni negotiation between providers in the health plan. once the patient is protected they should be allowed with their appropriate reimbursement. the committee put forward surprise billing. the in network guarantee or network matching approach would require facility-based practitioners to contract with every plan which a facility has a contract. this approach interferes with the fundamental relationship between hospitals and partners and limits practitioner ability to negotiate with insurers to be hard for rural areas that are challenged to recruit practitioners. we believe they should not be absolved of the core function of establishing provider networks and negotiating rates with provide

areas of the eastern drc. what makes the situation more difficult this time is the security situation with attacks on healthcareorkers.as reported by the washington post according to the wh elbow been 119 attacks against self workers this year. with psalm 85 wounded or killed. the presence of ex-patriots in particular the workers appear to have increased militants who have carried out the attacks. when one considers that these dedicated health workers put their lives in the line to help prevent and treat ebola the fact they should be targeted boggles the mind. we recall the testimony of doctor bradley met one of our 2014 hearings how he contracted the disease despite taking every precaution while helping ebola patients in liberia. we hope to get an update from witnesses today as to what the security situation is on the ground and whether we are putting our cdc and other personnel further in harms way beyond the threat posed by the ebola virus. finally, i would like to address the issue and raised by my good friend and colleague chairwoman Ãthere are some concern that assistance to the dr congo used to combat eb

there are some areas of safety, some healthcare, some telecom, some utilities, but overall, the market is expensive right now. even consumer staples that are considered to be defensive are very expensive so there is not a lot of places to hide when the market is this pricey, not a lot of stuff that is dramatically down 10% and still has complete domestic exposure i think that's what the market is telling us right now, that the choices for investors other than just pull back, rotate is a tougher game to play when the market is this expensive david, back to you. >> bob, thank you. bob pisani, covering that broader market listen, apple shares, jim, down 4% >> not yet. >> 4%. >> not yet. >> no? stock is -- about 5%, 6% lower than it was a year ago. >> regarded as being smack in the middle now the next piece of news will be credit card. but it might not be enough to offset what is a genuine panic in the stock believing that apple is the one that is targeted now that last quarter -- >> not without good reason the price of an iphone is going to go up they manufacturer them, secondly you wonde

the people in these situations, after being herded to areas with the wasn't efficient hygiene, and no healthcare, they were blamed for having diseases. it's absurd. now you're unintelligent. well, we've been starved. so you are right. link the victim until they have the tendency to ascribe lower intelligent people were not. if you look at the iq, what it does well is whether you have this in this group. when it was no longer the case, they had a high iq. a good example is asian iq. it's known that they have the highest iqs and people will say they are not racist, we say asians have the highest iq, that's not racist for frank said the high iq of some asian groups is always married to some kind of quality that is reprehensible. have a high iq but you are crafty. you have a high iq but you're someone who works day and night and not a fair competitor. you have a high iq but your competitive, high iq he said is not only not come from entry to asians but also a discussion for the purpose of shaming blacks and hispanics. an interesting dynamic going on there. >> i want to retire, where should i live?

healthcare nationwide. one of the tours that we then seeing over the last five or six years is the emergence of telehealth. it's really in rural areas and medically underserved areas. an easy telehealth struggling with education in the coming years #. >> again all of my experts and colleagues in education, i am in evolved very heavily with tele- dock. within eight minutes, we can reach 3 million people every year at a very low cost. forty dollars to talk to a board-certified physician. i mentioned that because tele- dock shows reach, we had the infrastructure and the know-how, our federal legislation effective january has broken down the barriers. when i started telemedicine and telehealth would not be reimbursed by states when i started. now it is. there's a huge impact with technology, it simple and it's inexpensive. i'll take it from there but in terms of access, were not going to be able to flip and put this in every school. we need a nurse or health personnel with that expertise when 25 percent of the population have some basic health need every day they come to class. telemedicine to me and i am off to make steak in many ways

better secondly by sector we focus on sectors like healthcare where earnings should be strong even if the cycle begins to turn. by theme we're looking at areas like companies that can buy back stock and high dividend yields that's an area we've done work on eventually. on recently we are looking at dividend per share, secondly, we've looked at companies that have not cut dividends in the last decade, in europe that's about 95% of european companies then we looked at the likelihood for payout ratios to be maintained in europe there's a high probability they will be maintained the payout ratio is down to 59%. >>> speaking about the defensive cyclicals valuations, defensives areshowing that. do you not worry about positioning in the space if, for example, we get this big bazooka out of the ecb >> we have reduced our weighting in cyclicals we think if there is the big bazooka from the ecb, there will be a trading rally, no more than that when we look at value, we see sectors like banks and autos which on the surface look attractivity pricee itite itityy priced and within that some cheap opportunities. >>> let's talk more about the china story. c

areas. so last night when some of the candidates got into the weeds about medicare and healthcare for all, although incredibly important, that is not a direct pocketbook issue that was made a connection with the voters, per se, or people who were watching. and so they should have talked a lot more about not just the billions and trillions we saw those numbers that, you know, lots of candidates were throwing out. but how would that explicitly affect you as either a single parent or a working person or, you know, certain candidates like to use the term working class, or union member. that articulation in connection sort of fell flat. and this is why think we can explain why andrew yang is still on the stage. some people were confused. it's because he presents him self as a washington outsider. >> it's very clear, you're going to get a thousand bucks. but having said that, it sounds like that you think that the democrats have failed to some extent. does that mean that they've handed a victory to president trump because he's giving them -- >> oh, no. i'm sorry. i don't think they're all failing. for ex

government in the area now, the fact is that resources are limited and we have to have some way of making sure that resources are allocated efficiently. the private sector rations healthcare. every time you want a test, you have to get an approval and convince the insurance company that it's needed. we still have to have some procedures like that. it's not going to be everybody who wants to have a surgery can get a knee replacement, but the idea that people will voluntarily get triple bypass surgeries is a little bit ridiculous. you don't go get a triple bypass unless you need it. so the utilization of things like heart surgery are exaggerated. >> if you have the public option that basically anyone who wants to buy medicare can get the care and if yo you're a knee surgeon than that of supplements but at least you have something. >> exactly. and the if i go to some doctors, they will pay for everything except a copayment, but there are other doctors that are out of network in which i am today .-full-stop and we will wind up with a system similar to that. the fact is that not everybody can get a surgery from the same surgeon. he just doesn't have enough times that there is

healthcare deserts and serve 11.4 million patients. that includes 1700 medical, 500 dent al and 1100 mental health professionals in rural areas. say government can also help by reducing scope of practice laws. >> these are laws that are enacted by states often pushed by physician groups that restrict what nurses and nurse practitioners can do on their own. i believe a lot of these laws are really unnecessary or too restrictive. >> reporter: harvard health policy professor said it's unrealistic to expect every community to have the economic resources for a big hospital and vast supply of clinicians. >> we need to think about the role of technology, telemedicine, but other types of technology that i think make access to rural care more possible. >> reporter: course, dana, some healthcare services still require direct human contact. and that's where expanding the scope of the types of clinicians that can provide this care comes into play. and also, what we touched on yesterday, actively recruiting young people from these remote areas to study medicine, because they are the ones who are the most likely to stay. dana? >> dana: thos

healthcare -- i think he called it "the tapeworm of economic competitiveness," if i have that right. basically, what he's saying is it is kiing our balance sheet. >> i mean, this is certainly one of the areas where all of us agree. it is too expensive, and there are ways to reform it. think there are different competing ideas about how to reform it. himean, there are models w medicare itself that have proven successful at bending the cost curve. if you look at medicare part d, for example, it has kept-d prescriptig prices lower than it would have otherwise. the same is true for medicare advantage. >> but here's the thing about medicare advantage.n it'sormously expensive program. people like it because wouldn't you want to have vision and, you know, hearing aids and dental? that is really important as you become older. i mean, it's important anytime, but certainly when you become older, b you're paying all these multiple plans. people are tired of having tofi pay fo different... >> but that is what's kept the cost from growing, because there's competition betweenlt these le plans, isn't it? >> if you have a large enough system, you can negotiate a far lower rate. americans shou not be payin

healthcare infrastructure. >> related. so again, this is talking about transparency and coordination, that's a problem area as always. chinese commerce department in the past, they usually report how many buildings they do, infrastructure buildings. they don't specifically bring out this is a hospital, this is the clinic and they don't report that way. so there are research teams and i personally work with the two value interviews university looking at some of the structure buildings and medical support and then we were trained to bring out okay, this is a hospital. this is a clinic so we considered them as a health assistance. >> when they build infrastructure, whose terms, whose companies, do theyuse the local company for the bring in chinese ? >> that's the question. there's, in the past they've mostly like any other infrastructure building in africa or in asia, they bring in their own workers but i think the chinese government are very sensitive to the criticism of international society that they are not relying on, now helping the local industry. i think in the recent infrastructure buildings, they are trying to

healthcare, imagine what we can do for you. this is the benefit of blue. >>> we're following breaking news out of el paso, texas, saying there is an active shooting and people should avoid the area las vegas, fresh off the cnn debates this week, 19 of the democrat beiic candidates are seeking endorsements. they are talking about very hot topic issues such as health care. >> i was there, i saw what happened when the house repealed health care for tens of millions of americans and high fived each other afterwards. what kind of human beings high five each other after taking away health care for millions of americans? i'll tell you this, when it came to the senate, i was on the floor when we picked up enough republican votes to protect health care for people across this country. >> cnn's jessica dean is live for us now in las vegas. what else are the candidates talking about today? >> reporter: health care a big one for this union. this is one of the biggest unions in the country. all of these democrats are seeking its endorsement. you can imagine this is high stakes for them. another issue that they talked about, julian castro addressed immigration. he has proposed decriminalizing

so one of the areas in the market i've heard today, hey, it may be a good place to look. you don't fet the worry and maybe a china healthcare that's where the question comes from you what do you think about it >> i like healthcare, it depends on what you are talking about. you got med tech up 15 and pharma down maybe 5. i think it depends i think there is a lot of good ideas in pharma and biotech. the biotech one versus growth and probably an under valued pipeline the stuff is really lag. you take all the risks in there. i like healthcare, our process can generate a good spread between the names. >> i want to keep the conversation back on what's sort of happening at the moment here in the market. you just sent me, joe, an interesting article which is the headline being mom and pop crushed by 5% route in stocks after adding to etfs the point being that you came into last week feeling fairly positive about where the marks could go over the weeks and months ahead because of the fed. now you are left with a lot of people, whether it's pros or average joes worn caught big time off side by an environment that has changed as we sa

reporter: remote area medical, ram, is a nonprofit group of doctors, nurses and other volunteers who travel to parts of the u.s. in need of medical, dental and vision services. america's healthcare are large parts of our country where there are very few hospitals, very few doctors. people really struggle to be able to get access to care in a timely fashion. >> reporter: for every 100,000 americans, there are about 53 primary care physicians in urban areas, but less than 40 in rural communities. the difference is even more stark for specialty physicians which average 263 in urban areas and just 30 in rural communities. general dentists average 30 in urban areas and 22 in rural communities. >> the dentist that would need to do my work would probably be in montross. >> reporter: how far is that? >> too far. >> reporter: we googled the drive and it is 1:20. getting doctors to move to a small community and stay there can be a challenge. some experts believe the solution may -- >> if you take a rural student and train them in a rural residency tract and place them in rural america, they fit. it's a successful model going ahead. >> reporter: but in addition to increasing availability,

healthcare, they don't want to decriminalize open border crossings and they're not okay with packing the supreme court as some of the nominees have suggested so i think the democrats will struggle outside of suburban arease with rural voters. cheryl: the cosmopolitan side of the democratic party is how it's described by some. i want to move to comments by harry reid out of nevada. he said there are so many more important things to do, decriminalizing border crossings should be way down at the bottom of the list. he said medicare for all would be certainly a disaster. he says how are you going to get medicare for all passed. remember, 90% of americans have healthcare coverage right now. is that a mistake by the dems? >> how crazy is it in 2019 that harry reid is the voice of sanity in the democratic party. you know. but unfortunately, it is not senator reed's party anymore, it's the party of aoc and elizabeth warren. reed is right. it's common sense that a government takeover of healthcare that would throw $100 million people off private insurance, double or triple taxes, crush medical innovation, it's common sense that even democrats should admit it's a bad idea. cheryl: i was just reading a report, med
