Politico interviewed CAHC’s Joel White about President Trump’s Great Healthcare Plan.
“I want them to go much further, much further than what is in the Great Healthcare Plan. And they can, they’ve got tons of levers at their disposal that they could pull,” said Joel White, a Republican strategist who works on health care issues.
White urged Trump to use the administration’s authority to break up the insurance companies, prohibiting them from simultaneously owning physician practices and pharmacies.
But he maintained confidence that the president would “circle back” to the issue.
“It’s naive to think that the president just, you know, put some stuff out and now he’s going to let it go,” White said. “I just don’t think that’s going to happen.”
