JD Vance ^ Theo Von discuss the health care system
Republican vice presidential candidate JD Vance sat down with popular podcaster Theo Von on “This Past Weekend.” During the two-hour conversation, the two discussed everything from rising healthcare costs to the free flow of drugs through Biden-Harris’s open border. Vance advocated for transparency in healthcare. Here's a clip on the Important discussion from Theo Von and JD Vance on price transparency in healthcare | Theo Von: "How do we not have real prices and transparency in health care, knowing that it’s exactly what America needs so that our health care system will be honest and affordable and accessible?
JD Vance: Well, you’re right that we should have it. And the reason that we don’t is, unfortunately, because there are a lot of powerful people who get rich off of keeping these things secret. And so they don’t want transparency. They don’t want sunshine.
Theo Von: You can say Chuck Schumer if you want.
JD Vance: I won’t say it. Well, look, you’re right, though. Obviously, Bernie and I aren’t on the same team politically, but there are some healthcare things like price transparency, where actually, I think he and President Trump are both right, that there’s nothing that…
You go to Starbucks, you buy coffee, you know how much you’re getting, you know how much it’s costing you. I remember when my wife, I think it was her second baby, where you get pain medications because when you’re delivering a baby, at least most people do, because it’s a very painful experience.
There was some weird thing where the doctor that she chose was out of network, and she didn’t realize…
I mean, you’re not checking whether the doctor is in network at the time, right? You’re just choosing a doctor.
Then we come home, and we have a $15,000 unexpected bill because she chose the wrong doctor an hour before she delivers a baby. It’s like, this is totally crazy. We’re in a situation where that was not a big deal for us. We were able to afford it. But think about a normal middle-class family goes and has a baby and comes home to a medical bill that’s a fifth of their entire take home pay that year.
Theo Von: That’s crazy. The number one cause of bankruptcy in America is medical debt.
JD Vance: Yeah, it’s a huge, huge problem. I think the price transparency is a big part of it.
