igor, this can be the ornamental lake. >> igor: yeah. >> henry: for your hospital. [ chuckling ] >> igori like it. [ igor speaking ukrainian language ] >> henry: so... so the front of the building will be where? >> will be here. >> henry: will be here. it's a water pipe -- it's a deep water pipe here. >> henry: and the patients' rooms will look onto the courtyard? >> igor: yes. >> henry: and there will be a garden in the middle of the courtyard. that's wonderful. igor, it's so important to have good design in hospitals, because hospitals are like prisons -- they're places where a sll number of people are doing nasty things to a large number of people. >> igor: nice weather. [ speaking ukrainian language ] >> you do realize this is a very big, serious case, don't you, the one we're going to do now? >> igor: yes, henry. the risk of surgery. >> henry: and the patient realizes, i hope. >> the problem is that if you're unsuccessful, clinic... so nobody realize how risky surgery can be. >> henry: i know, but you've got to tell them. >> igor: yes, i told them, i told them, but they reply that,

is there a bottle opener in tre, igor? >> igor: here you are. >> thank you very much. i have now taught you everything i know out brain surgery. >> you are a wonderful teacher. henry: you've now picked my brain clean. >> the only problem... the only problem that we can kill patient... >> henry: yes. >> with it. >> henry: can and probably will. that's the problem. in ukrainian conditions, a few deaths, medically, are acceptable. the tumors are so big and the conditions are difficult. but politically, only you can decide whether the political -- thank you ever so much, elena. >> igor: and they will advertise the bad case. >> henry: your very good health. igor: thank you, mrmarsh. >> henry: let's hope the patient's all right. [ do barking ] there he is. >> mr. marsh. >> henry: marian. dobre den. hello. okay? any fits at all? [ igor interpreting ] no, no fits. arms up in there air. turn thealms around. right round. cle your eyes. that's very good. that's fine, lovely, dobre. so he's fine, he's going to be all right. so the only question now is if we've abolished the epilep

go away. [ rns honking ] [ crying ] >> henry: igor, it's henry, hello. actually quite violent. you have to actually hold the patient's head quite strongly. is everything else all right, otherwise? and the plans -- and the plans for going to gorodok to see tanya's mother, is that, is that okay, is it? it's -13 degrees in the daytime on friday. so it may feel a bit more like winter when i 'm there. [ tone plays over p.a. ] [ woman speaking ukrainian language over p.a. ] i'm taking out some instrume nts again for igor. and i'm going to show him some very difficult operations he hasn't really done before. but what i'm thinking most about, actually, is going to see tanya's mother. and you might say, why, why do i want to go and see the mothe r of a child who died several years ago? and i've had many patients who've died, and many of the children. i don't quite know the answer. but i just know i want to go and see katya. i think about her and tanya very often. s i suppose beqacause qaitqa wqaaa um...iaiaiaiaia i can remember so cleay when i she was veryhy, and

igor, thank you . a one-word response from senator orrin hatch. and the white house seems to be focusing on their czars, and george bush had some, too, but there is a huge difference. (announcer) we understand. you need to save money. neil: all right, well, as you know, the president has said that the savings is going to pay for the health-care reform. the only way to pay for the big spending, another person says, is the big tax hikes, says senator orrin hatch joins us. how big of a tax hike? >> i am not going to support a tax hike when we have the ability to fix the health-care system in our country and make it work, but, look. like i said. there are millions of people in this country. 47 million uninsured, and the president said 30 million at the joint session speech, and there are the 6 million who work for companies that have health insurance but they do not buy it, or you take the 11 million that qualify for chip or medicaid and do not enroll in it, and you take the others who can afford its, the undocumented workers, and you get down to 12 m

igor, what's main point you want to make here? >> this is a very fiery discussion. thanks for having me. >> that's what we do. >> i can tell. i think the main point is people have tried to get coverage in the private market and they've been denied. about 8 out of 10 who try to get coverage in the individual market can't because it's simply unaffordable. i want to make one more point about medical bankruptcy that somebody else brought up. today, congressman ckusinich asked have you guys heard about medical bankruptcy, 80% was associated to medical costs? and they said nothing. >> so what's? what's your point in all of this? >> the business mod for insurers is intended to attract healthy people, not sick people. and they do everything in their power to keep sick people out. >> that's what insurance is for. it's for healthy people to help them in case they get really sick. >> but insurance only hurts when you have enough healthy people to outdo the costs of sick people. >> we have 85% of 300 million people insured. that's a lot. >> most are in employer-based coverage w

secondly, i like to thank very much igor shuvalov for gracing us with his presence here in washington today. he has a large political responsibilities and has a bright political future, and it is always a pleasure to see you interact and sorry that i missed you at the valdai institute discussions. it is wonderful to know that the outset where we were a year ago. i am sure that the ambassador has not forgotten as heroes -- he is -- as he arrived in washington then. we had a war in georgia, and that was the nadir of our relationships for a long time. he was virtually frozen and there was much discussion of a new cold war. and then as he mentioned, lehman brothers went bust in early september and we enter the global economic crisis. the only good news about that for russia is that the global economic crisis to the georgian war and rushed off the front pages here in the united states. it also took it away as a campaign issue. but it was a very tough time. i remember seeing john henry and hallway at c i s, asking me how i was. with a global depression and a new cold war, i am great. and mr

i have to wonderful co-authors, faiz shakir and igor volsky. they started outhis fact eckers but ended up writing a number of factors but they revoke the whole book which than i had to write again to make sure was still in english. i am just teasing about that because they really know this stuff cold and it was a lot of fun to work with them and i want to thank them for what they did. a couple of things about health care. the first is, i will say i have been at this for 30 years ago i convinced the dean of the medical school i went to, albert einstein school of medicine to-- my senior yea in medical school in the fall of center javits and senator kennedy round hill as they were putting together the bill for jimmy carter when he was president. several years later i was involved with senator clinton, nosecretary clinton's task force drew some staff peoe we have permanently assigned to the task force and now in my later incarnation if the president obama built. this is the best bill i have seen. not because it is perfectly designed because no bill
