now, medicare takes care of millions of people. medicare -- my plan is going to allow that.very other type of health care service, from the cost of a doctor's, or how much the doctor can charge for a visit, hospital visit, crutches, wheelchairs. medicare is allowed to negotiate and say, “we'll pay no more from the medicare than the following amount for those things.” as i said before, the only thing medicare is not allowed to negotiate are prices for prescription drugs. my plan gets rid of that prohibition. the proposal i made while i was running for president is that medicare should negotiate drug prices across the board. congress is currently debating a more narrow vision, letting medicare negotiate some of the most expensive drugs, particularly from those companies that don't face competition for that drug. we're going to provide the competition through -- we're going to provide that competition through medicare. medicare is going to negotiate a fair price. right now, drug companies will set a price at whatever the market will bear. some of you may remember when i had the

i do not get medicare. am not poor, but my income falls below a high amount, and they send it to me free every six months. you know, it is -- we want to charge the drug companies a fortune to prove the medicine works so we can release it in this country. other countries get the drugs first and cheaper. it is, you know, we are basically the ones -- well, not us, but the government is basically the ones who are proving that, you know, we are going to charge the companies a phenomenal amount and then we expect them to release it at a lower price? you know, it is not a question of them making billions of dollars. it is a question of them covering costs. host: let's go to mark, who is calling from pennsylvania. mark, good morning. caller: good morning. how are you doing? host: just fine. go ahead, mark. caller: i want to know how anyone expects congress to be the solver for the problem when they cannot police their ranks and catch their own and do nothing about it. it was not long ago that joe manchin's daughter

i want to turn to medicare. although we've been talking about medicare all day. what i've heard from people who have sat in your seat is, the providers are there every single day with issues, legitimate, that's not the question, but constant pivot i get the notion of public comment is something like a medicaid waiver. when it comes to really the fundamentals of thinking about running the medicare agency, what does it mean in practice to make a patient centered? >> it is a big effort, as you said. there is so much that goes into the medicare payments. as you know, we are cranking out rules at a very constant pace. and i would say it is a twofold process. not to make it simple, because it's not. but one of the ways is by -- one of the things that i have started doing that really will be a longer process is making sure that we are engaging stakeholders. we have been starting listening sessions this month with me. i always find that hearing from people on the ground is so helpful for understanding how policies are moving. cms has been premade certainly come but what

now medicare takes care of millions of people. medicare -- my plan is going to allow that.e of health care service from the cost of how much a doctor can charge for a visit, hospital visit, crutches, wheelchairs, medicare is allowed to negotiate and say we'll pay no more from the medicare than the following amount for those things. as i've said before, the only thing medicare is not allowed to negotiate are prices for prescription drugs. my plan gets rid of that prohibition. the proposal i made while running for president is that medicare should negotiate drug prices across the board. congress is currently debating more narrow vision letting medicare negotiate some of the most expensive drugs particularly from those companies that don't face competition for that drug. we're going to provide the competition through, we're going to provide that competition through medicare. medicare is going to negotiate a fair price. right now drug companies will set a price and whatever the market will bear. some of you may remember when i had the moon shot going when i was vice president.

even with medicare.uld reduce the total cost by thousands of dollars and seniors would not pay more than $250 a month on average. that would be a game-changer. and by the way, it isn't just seniors who benefit. this would lower prescription drug prices for all americans. and here is how. if medicare prices are available to private insurance companies, then it would reduce the cost of employer employer-based health insurance coverage. once medicare negotiated a better drug price for beneficiaries, a plan shouldn't have to keep paying whatever the drug company demands. they should get access to the same drug and the same price as medicare. so if you're not on medicare, you get your prescription drugs through your employer based plan, your plan should pay the same price for that drug as someone or medicare. that means drug companies would have to sell drugs to all distributors at the medicare price. or face up to a 95% excise tax. the savings for employers an employees would be billions of dollars a year. w

one last question, i know that your budget includes 6.5% increase in medicare spending, medicare trust fund is slated to go insolvent as soon as 2024. how do you propose to make up the difference in the medicare trust fund? do you propose additional payroll taxes? what's your plan? we've got to make this medicare plan golden, we've got to make it concrete for our seniors. how can we afford to spend more when we're going to be insolvent in three years? >> congressman, we're going to do what we can. i can follow up with you on that, congressman, i know time has expired. >> thank you. >> yield back, mr. chairman. thank you, let me recognize the gentle lady from california, ms. sanchez, to insquire. >> thank you, and i want to thank secretary becerra. i want to note how surprising it is my colleagues on the other side of the aisles have mysteriously become concerned about unaccompanied minors in hhs custody. they weren't concerned during the last administration, they were taken from their parents ar forced to stay on squalid camps on the other side of the border and i wonder why it took so

by medicare.e basis of that price is for drugs will be very port. is it what other countries charge? is it how much health a drug impooufs people. that basis will be very, very important and whether or not it can be adapted by private insurance will also be very, very important. medicare sets a price for medicare patients, but guess what? people with private insurance, 160 million americans, are left out and i think that would be tragic. >> dr. emanuel, before i let you go, one last yes perhaps you heard your name has been reported as a possible nominee to lead the fda. have you had any conversations with the white house about that? >> no. would you be interested in the position if it were offered? >> look, government service is important. my family grew up on helping everyone in the country however we can do it and that has always been my position. when i was asked to help with the affordable care act, global health, and other issues, absolutely. helping the american people has been a number one
