Summary

Radiologist Nicole Saphier, a frequent Fox News contributor, joins the morning show to talk about healthcare reform in the United States. Set against the backdrop of both Republican and Democratic healthcare bills being rejected, Saphier emphasizes the need for bipartisan efforts to address healthcare issues. She critiques the 'Medicare for All' approach and the inadequacies of the GOP's 'skinny bill,' advocating instead for short-term subsidies coupled with long-term reforms. She argues for expanding health savings accounts, reintroducing physician-owned medical centers, and allowing insurance purchases across state lines to improve quality and reduce costs. The conversation also touches on the implications of healthcare decisions on upcoming elections and the overall complexity of healthcare reform. Learn more about your ad choices.
