Medicare-for-All reduces spending 18.5% of GDP on health

Answer from Harley Rouda: I support Medicare for All. Each of the 200 countries in the world follow one of four models to provide health care. Ironically, the United States follows all four models, providing health care in the least efficient way possible. This is why the United States spends 18.5% of our GDP on health care while still ranking near the bottom in metrics that measure the health of our population.

Medicare works to deliver health care. I believe we should open Medicare to allow any individual or business the ability to buy coverage. Additionally, I believe we must allow Medicare to negotiate drug prices to ensure lower prescription drug prices for our seniors.

Keep healthcare mandate, according to CC survey.
