Interview with President Obama on Health Care Reform

Dr. LaPook interview President Obama on Health Care Reform. While reading this article, I was very surprised and deligthed to read the honest, candid conversation President Obama had with Dr. LaPook on health care reform. During this interview, President Obama mentions that he has came to the conclusion that health care insurance should be mandated for all Americans, with a hardship exemption. He came to this conclusion after realizing young people who are cheap to insure but generally opts out on health care coverage. President Obama also points out one of several crucial flaws with the current health care systems. The insurance company who refuse to pay for recommended course of action are the same ones who consider the appeal of their original decisions. These insurance companies are in the business to make profits. President Nixon laughs when Mr. Ehrlichman discussing the creation of HMO in 1973. I for one would like to discuss health care reform starting with HMO Act.
