SENATOR BOB DOLE

FEDERATION OF AMERICAN

HEALTH SYSTEMS

FRIDAY -- MARCH 26, 1993

THANK YOU VERY MUCH. IT

IS A PRIVILEGE TO BE HERE.

YOUR PRESENCE HERE IN

WASHINGTON COMES AT A

CRITICAL TIME. IT IS A TIME

Page 1 of 99 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu

WHEN SOME SO-CALLED

HEALTH CARE REFORMERS

SEEM TO BE IN SEARCH OF AN

ENEMY, RATHER THAN A

SOLUTION. THEY'RE LOOKING

FOR SOMEONE TO BLAME FOR

ALL THE COMPLEX PROBLEMS

CONFRONTING OUR HEALTH

CARE DELIVERY SYSTEM.

UNFORTUNATELY THESE SAME

REFORMERS, WHILE CRYING

FOR CHANGE ARE TELLING

GROUPS LIKE YOURS THAT YOU

ARE SIMPLY A 11 SPECIAL

11 INTEREST , AND THEREFORE

SHOULD HAVE NO VOICE IN THE

DEBATE. THEY APPARENTLY

FEEL THE SAME WAY ABOUT

REPUBLICANS -- WE'VE ALSO

BEEN EXCLUDED FROM HAVING

3

Page 3 of 99 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu

ANY INPUT INTO THE WHITE

HOUSE TASK FORCE UNTIL

AFTER THE 11 PRODUCT11 IS DONE.

WELL, l'M HERE TO TELL

YOU THAT THE ONLY SPECIAL

INTEREST I CARE ABOUT IS THE

AMERICAN PEOPLE. THEY ARE

THE ONES WHO WILL SUFFER IF

THE WHITE HOUSE AND

4

Page 4 of 99 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu

CONGRESS DO THE WRONG

THING.

AS MANY OF YOU KNOW,

SENATE REPUBLICANS HAVE

BEEN DEEPLY IMMERSED IN THE

ISSUE. WE'VE HAD A HEALTH

TASK FORCE HARD AT WORK

FOR THE PAST TWO YEARS, AND

I SAY WITH PRIDE THAT SOME

5

Page 5 of 99 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu

OF MY REPUBLICAN

COLLEAGUES TAKE A BACKSEAT

TO NO ONE WHEN IT COMES TO

HEALTH CARE EXPERTISE AND

COMPASSION.

THOSE OF US WHO HAVE

BEEN ON THE FRONTLINES OF

THIS ISSUE KNOW FIRSTHAND

THAT THE HEALTH CARE

6

Page 6 of 99 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu

CHALLENGE IS BIGGER THAN

ANY ONE GROUP -- BIGGER

THAN THE REPUBLICAN TASK

FORCE, BIGGER THAN THE

DEMOCRATIC TASK FORCE AND

BIGGER THAN THE WHITE

HOUSE -- AND THE SOONER WE

ALL GET INVOLVED THE BETTER.

7

Page 7 of 99 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu

NO DOUBT ABOUT IT,

HEALTH CARE IS AN ISSUE THAT

CRIES OUT FOR BIPARTISAN

COOPERATION. IT WILL BE

NEARLY IMPOSSIBLE TO PASS

ANY MAJOR REFORM WITHOUT

IT. AND BIPARTISAN DOESN'T

MEAN SIMPLY PICKING OFF

THREE REPUBLICANS SO THAT

THE DEMOCRAT MAJORITY CAN

8

Page 8 of 99 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu

RAM A FLAWED PLAN THROUGH

CONGRESS AND CLAIM VICTORY.

IT IS HARDLY NEWS THAT

HEALTH CARE COSTS HAVE

SPIRALED OUT OF CONTROL --

WE ARE RAPIDLY APPROACHING

THE ONE TRILLION DOLLAR

MARK FOR HEALTH CARE

SPENDING. AND, AS YOU KNOW,

9

Page 9 of 99 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu

THIS SPENDING IS ONE OF THE

MAJOR FACTORS IN THE

RECORD-SETTING FEDERAL

DEFICIT, WITH ENTITLEMENT

PROGRAMS GROWING AND

GROWING EACH YEAR, ALONG

WITH THE NUMBER OF

UNINSURED.

10

Page 10 of 99 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu

EVERYONE WANTS TO

KNOW WHY HEALTH CARE

COSTS KEEP GOING UP. FOR

LEADERS AND EXPERTS, THE

ANSWER IS THAT THE COST

ISSUE IS A COMPLEX ONE. THEY

REFER TO FACTORS SUCH AS

DUPLICATION OF TECHNOLOGY

AND SERVICES, DEFENSIVE

MEDICINE, TOO MANY

11

Page 11 of 99 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu

REGULATIONS, MOUNTAINS OF

PAPERWORK, HEALTH COSTS

ASSOCIATED WITH CRIME AND

DRUG ABUSE, AND AN AGING

POPULATION.

BUT, AS I POINTED OUT TO

SOME OF YOUR COLLEAGUES IN

MEDICINE ON WEDNESDAY,

ACCORDING TO A RECENT

12

Page 12 of 99 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu

SURVEY FROM GALLUP, THE

AMERICAN PEOPLE CAN SUM UP

THE COST ISSUE IN ONE SIMPLE

11 11 WORD: GREED • THE SURVEY

SHOWS THAT AMERICANS

BLAME THE HIGH COSTS ON

UNNECESSARY TESTS,

WASTEFUL HOSPITALS,

OVERPAID DOCTORS,

AMBULANCE-CHASING

13

Page 13 of 99 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu

MALPRACTICE LAWYERS, AND

OVERPRICED

PHARMACEUTICALS. FROM THE

PUBLIC'S PERSPECTIVE, WE

DON'T HAVE A COST PROBLEM,

WE HAVE A 11 PROFITS 11 PROBLEM.

THE AMERICAN PEOPLE

BELIEVE THAT OUR HEALTH

CARE SYSTEM IS RIDDLED WITH

14

Page 14 of 99 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu

WASTE AND GREED.

THEREFORE, NO ONE IS EAGER

TO TALK ABOUT HARD CHOICES.

NO ONE WANTS TO GIVE UP

ANYTHING. AND NOT MANY

WANT TO CONSIDER CHOICES

THAT RAISE THEIR OWN COSTS

OR REDUCE THE SERVICES THEY

GET. THE HARD FACTS ARE, IF

WE ARE GOING TO IMPROVE THE

15

Page 15 of 99 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu

LOT OF SOME -- OTHERS WILL

HAVE TO DO WITH CHANGES IN

WHAT THEY GET TODAY. BUT

THAT IS NOT AN EASY PLAN TO

SELL. IT'S MUCH EASIER TO

SIMPLY MAKE YOU THE ENEMY --

TO PUT PRICE CONTROLS AND

GLOBAL BUDGETS IN PLACE. IN

THE VIEW OF THIS SENATOR --

AND IN THE VIEW OF MANY

16

Page 16 of 99 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu

OTHERS IN OUR TASK FORCE --

THAT'S NOT THE ANSWER.

THE CATASTROPHIC

HEALTH CARE LEGISLATION

THAT CONGRESS PASSED IN

1988 IS A GOOD EXAMPLE OF

GOOD INTENTIONS GONE BAD.

WE THOUGHT IT WAS A PRETTY

GOOD IDEA. WE SAID TO THE

17

Page 17 of 99 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu

PEOPLE WHO WERE BETTER OFF

THAN OTHERS, THAT THEY

OUGHT TO PAY A LITTLE MORE.

I THOUGHT IT MADE A LOT OF

SENSE, AND WAS GOOD

LEGISLATIVE POLICY. IT WAS A

TOUGH DECISION, BUT IT

PASSED CONGRESS BY AN

OVERWHELMING MAJORITY.

LESS THAN A YEAR LATER, IT

18

Page 18 of 99 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu

WAS REPEALED BECAUSE THE

PEOPLE WHO WERE GOING TO

HAVE TO PAY MORE HAD A VERY

EFFECTIVE LOBBY. THEY TOLD

US HOW THEY EARNED THESE

BENEFITS, AND HOW EVEN

THOUGH THEY MIGHT BE

BETTER OFF, THEY SHOULDN'T

HAVE TO PAY ONE MORE CENT.

AND LET'S FACE IT, WHEN THE

19

Page 19 of 99 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu

SENIOR CITIZENS SPEAK UP,

CONGRESS LISTENS -- AND

WHEY THEY SPOKE, CONGRESS

CHANGED ITS VOTE. WHAT

LOOKED LIKE COMMON SENSE

REFORM WAS QUICKLY

REPEALED.

SO THE LESSON WE

LEARNED THEN, AND WHAT WE

20

Page 20 of 99 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu

ARE LEARNING NOW, IS THAT

AMERICANS STILL WANT MORE

CARE, MORE QUALITY, MORE

ACCESS, BUT AT LOWER COSTS.

SO, WHAT DO WE DO?

I BELIEVE WE ALL SHARE

THE SAME GOALS -- UNIVERSAL

ACCESS FOR ALL, IN A SYSTEM

THAT CONTAINS COSTS WHILE

21

Page 21 of 99 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu

PRESERVING CHOICE AND THE

HIGH QUALITY OF CARE.

WE ALL WANT TO SEE

HEALTH CARE REFORM -- WE

ALL KNOW THAT WE CANNOT

SUSTAIN OUR CURRENT RATE

OF SPENDING -- AND WE ALL

KNOW THAT WE MUST FIND A

WAY TO BRING EVERYONE INTO

22

Page 22 of 99 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu

THE SYSTEM.

THE AMERICAN PUBLIC

SHOULD EXPECT US, THEIR

ELECTED REPRESENTATIVES, TO

SEEK SOLUTIONS THAT

MAINTAIN THE FOLLOWING SIX

PRINCIPLES. THESE PRINCIPLES

SHOULD BE USED TO EVALUATE

ANY PLAN PUT FORWARD BY

23

Page 23 of 99 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu

THE ADMINISTRATION OR BY

REPUBLICANS IF THEY ARE

FORCED TO DEVELOP THEIR

OWN ALTERNATIVE.

1. PROTECT QUALITY -- THERE

IS A REASON OUR HEALTH

SYSTEM IS THE ENVY OF

THE WORLD -- WHY PEOPLE

FROM EVERY COUNTRY IN

24

Page 24 of 99 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu

THE WORLD SEND THEIR

YOUNG PEOPLE HERE TO

BE TRAINED, TO DO

RESEARCH; WHY THEY

FLOCK HERE TO YOUR

HOSPITALS FOR CARE --

THE REASON IS QUALITY.

THANKS TO OUR SEARCH

FOR QUALITY AND

EXCELLENCE, WE HAVE

25

Page 25 of 99 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu

DEFEATED PLAGUES, MADE

SPARE PARTS FOR NEARLY

EVERY BODY ORGAN, YOUR

INTENSIVE CARE

NURSERIES AND CAN SAVE

THE LIFE OF THE SMALLEST,

FRAILEST NEWBORN. IN

OUR WISH TO LOWER

COSTS AND BETTER

MANAGE OUR RESOURCES,

26

Page 26 of 99 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu

LET'S NOT THROW AWAY

OUR MEDICAL MIRACLES.

2. INCREASE ACCESS,

PRESERVE CHOICE, AND

FLEXIBILITY -- CONSUMERS,

NOT THE GOVERNMENT,

SHOULD BE THE ONES TO

MAKE CHOICES ABOUT

WHERE THEY GET THEIR

27

Page 27 of 99 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu

CARE AND FROM WHOM.

AT THE HEART OF OUR

FREE MARKET SYSTEM, IS

OUR ABILITY TO CHOOSE.

IN HEALTH CARE, AS IN NO

OTHER INDUSTRY, THAT

CHOICE IS CRITICAL TO

MAINTAINING QUALITY

HEALTH CARE FOR YOU

AND YOUR FAMILY. AND

28

Page 28 of 99 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu

CRITICAL TO MAINTAINING

CHOICE IS FLEXIBILITY IN

ANY SYSTEM. WHETHER ITS

THE ABILITY TO CHOOSE

BETWEEN HOSPITAL BASED

CARE OR HOME BASED

CARE -- OR THE ABILITY TO

DESIGN A SYSTEM

SPECIFICALLY GEARED TO

THOSE IN RURAL AMERICA -

29

Page 29 of 99 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu

- WE MUST ALLOW THOSE

CHOICES AND THAT

TARGETING OF

RESOURCES.

3. PRESERVE JOBS -- THIS

MAY BE ONE OF OUR

TOUGHEST CHALLENGES.

WE ALL AGREE THAT WE

HAVE TO INCREASE THE

30

Page 30 of 99 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu

NUMBER OF PEOPLE IN THE

COUNTRY WHO HAVE

ACCESS TO HEALTH CARE

AND HEALTH INSURANCE.

SOME WILL ARGUE THAT

MANDATES ON EMPLOYERS

IS THE ONLY OPTION. BUT

WHAT WE CAN'T AFFORD TO

DO IS PUT OUR PEOPLE OUT

OF WORK BY MANDATING

31

Page 31 of 99 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu

AND TAXING SMALL

BUSINESS OUT OF

BUSINESS. EVERY SMALL

EMPLOYER I TALK TO

DESCRIBES THE

PRECARIOUS FINANCIAL

SITUATION THEY ARE IN --

ANOTHER PAYROLL TAX --

ANOTHER MANDATE-COULD

PUT THEM OVER THE EDGE.

32

Page 32 of 99 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu

KEEPING PEOPLE AT WORK

AND KEEPING OUR

ECONOMY GROWING IS THE

BEST PRESCRIPTION FOR

BETTER HEALTH CARE

BENEFITS.

4. NO GOVERNMENT

CONTROLLED CARE -- ITS A

SHAME THAT SOME CRITICS

33

Page 33 of 99 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu

HAVE TO BE REMINDED,

BUT WE ARE NOT SWEDEN

OR GERMANY OR EVEN

CANADA -- AND WE DON'T

WANT TO BE. YES, WE'VE

GOT REAL PROBLEMS. BUT

THEY REQUIRE AMERICAN

SOLUTIONS. MANAGED

COMPETITION -- AS IT HAS

BEEN DESCRIBED TO ME --

34

Page 34 of 99 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu

BUILDS ON THE PRIVATE

SECTOR AND HELPS

PEOPLE MAKE BETTER

CHOICES ABOUT THEIR

FAMILIES AND WHAT THEY

NEED. THE GOVERNMENT

SHOULD BE THERE TO HELP

THOSE WHO NEED IT AND

HAVE NO OTHER

RESOURCES -- IT'S NOT

35

Page 35 of 99 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu

THERE TO CONTROL OUR

LIVES. YES, PEOPLE WANT

THE SECURITY THAT AN

ILLNESS WON'T BANKRUPT

THEM. BUT, AMERICANS

DON'T WANT SOCIALISM

WHICH SOME ARE TRYING

MIGHTILY TO INSTITUTE

WHENEVER THEY CAN.

36

Page 36 of 99 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu

5. CONTROL COSTS NOT CARE

-- GLOBAL BUDGETS AND

PRICE CONTROLS

TRANSLATE INTO REDUCED

QUALITY AND RATIONED

CARE. CONTROLS ON THE

PRICES OF HEALTH CARE

ONLY POSTPONES THE

NECESSARY

CONFRONTATION WITH THE

37

Page 37 of 99 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu

UNDERLYING DEMAND THAT

HAVE PRODUCED THEIR

INCREASE.

UNFORTUNATELY,

CONTROLS ARE INEVITABLY

TARGETED AT THE

SYMPTOMS NOT THE

CAUSES. LET'S CREATE AN

ENVIRONMENT TO REDUCE

COSTS AND UTILIZATION

38

Page 38 of 99 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu

THROUGH A BETTER, MORE

APPROPRIATE USE OF

SERVICES. LET'S PUT

RESPONSIBILITY ON NOT

ONLY PROVIDERS, BUT

ALSO ON EMPLOYERS AND

EMPLOYEES TO USE CARE

WISELY. LETS ENCOURAGE

PREVENTION -- LETS

ENCOURAGE BETTER

NO OTHER INDUSTRIALIZED

COUNTRY DO HEALTH CARE

PROVIDERS CONFRONT THE

40

LITIGATION. IT'S NO

WONDER PHYSICIANS AND

IT HARD TO SAY NO WHEN A

THE CHARGE THEY DIDN'T

DO ENOUGH. THAT'S NO

41

WAY TO DO BUSINESS.

NOW, LET ME BE CLEAR --

NO DOUBT THAT MISTAKES ARE

SOMETIMES MADE AND SOME

PATIENTS ARE FULLY

DESERVING OF PROTECTION

UNDER THE LAW, AND ARE DUE

PROPER COMPENSATION. BUT

AT SOME POINT, REASON MUST

FOR THE DEMOCRAT MAJORITY

TO THE TRIAL LAWYERS

ASSOCIATION AND SAY,

ENOUGH IS ENOUGH! IT'S ALSO

TIME FOR US TO CREATE A

ENCOURAGES HOSPITALS AND

RESOURCES IN WAYS THAT

REDUCE COSTS, MAXIMIZE

INNOVATION.

THIS YEAR, AS YOU KNOW,

WE ARE DISCUSSING 11 MANAGED

11 COMPETITION , WHICH SOME

SAY WILL CONTROL COSTS

44

Page 44 of 99 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu

WHILE BRINGING EVERY

AMERICAN INTO THE SYSTEM. I

HAVE TO BELIEVE THAT MANY

AMERICANS -- INCLUDING SOME

IN GOVERNMENT -- ARE

UNCERTAIN OF WHAT MANAGED

COMPETITION IS, OR HOW IT

REALLY WORKS. I, FOR ONE,

HAVE QUESTIONED HOW

MANAGED COMPETITION WILL

45

Page 45 of 99 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu

WORK IN RUSSELL, KANSAS, OR

ANY RURAL AREA, OR INNER

CITY, WHERE THERE ARE ONLY

ONE OR TWO DOCTORS.

AND, THERE IS CONCERN

BY MANY THAT MANAGED

COMPETITION WILL REDUCE THE

ABILITY OF AMERICANS TO

CHOOSE THEIR PROVIDERS, OR

46

Page 46 of 99 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu

WILL LEAD TO RATIONING OF

CARE. THESE ARE ISSUES THAT

WILL HAVE TO BE ADDRESSED.

THE CHALLENGE NOW IS TO

DEVELOP A FAIR AND

EQUITABLE HEALTH CARE

STRATEGY TO MAKE HEALTH

CARE AVAILABLE TO ALL

AMERICANS THROUGH A

47

Page 47 of 99 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu

COMPETITIVE PRIVATE SECTOR

HEALTH CARE SYSTEM.

PERHAPS THE REAL

CHALLENGE IS TO ACCOMPLISH

THIS WITHOUT RAVAGING THE

ECONOMY -- WITHOUT HURTING

BUSINESS -- AND WITHOUT

FURTHER STRAINING OUR

BANKRUPT ECONOMY. IT'S

48

Page 48 of 99 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu

PRE I I Y EASY TO PROMISE

EVERYBODY EVERYTHING, BUT

THAT KIND OF PROPAGANDA

WILL ONLY HELP MAKE THE

CRISIS A PERMANENT ONE.

THIS DEBATE CAN NOT

DISINTEGRATE INTO A POLITICAL

CONTEST. IF IT DOES, THE

AMERICAN PEOPLE WILL BE THE

49

Page 49 of 99 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu

LOSERS. THE AMERICAN

PEOPLE WANT ANSWERS AND

SOLUTIONS, AND THEY DON'T

CARE WHICH PARTY TAKES

CREDIT. CLEARLY, WE HAVE TO

WORK TOGETHER -- PROVIDERS,

BUSINESS, INSURERS,

CONSUMERS, AND THE

GOVERNMENT.

50

Page 50 of 99 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu

I AM CONVINCED THAT

REFORM CAN TAKE PLACE --

AND I AM CONVINCED THAT IT

CAN BE DONE WITHOUT

CREATING VOLUMES OF NEW

REGU.LATIONS.

NO DOUBT ABOUT IT, THE

ADMINISTRATION AND

CONGRESS MUST WORK

51

Page 51 of 99 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu

TOGETHER ON REFORMING OUR

NATION'S HEALTH CARE

SYSTEM. AND REPUBLICANS

ARE READY TO ROLL UP OUR

SLEEVES AND FACE THE

DIFFICULT DECISIONS THAT

MUST BE MADE.

THE PRESIDENT HAS DONE

THE RIGHT THING BY MAKING

52

Page 52 of 99 ------=------~~...__.__.,. This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu

HEALTH CARE A TOP PRIORITY.

NOW COMES THE HARD PART:

LEADERSHIP. FOR THE NEXT

FEW MONTHS, THE HEALTH

CARE CHALLENGE WILL BECOME

A REAL TEST OF HIS

LEADERSHIP ABILITIES. THE

PRESIDENT CAN TRY TO GO IT

ALONE. HE CAN SHUT OUT THE

EXPERTS. HE CAN WELCOME

53

Page 53 of 99 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu

ONLY HIS DEMOCRAT ALLIES TO

THE OVAL OFFICE, BUT THAT'S

NOT LEADERSHIP. THE

AMERICAN PEOPLE WANT

ACTION, THEY WANT RESULTS.

IF THE PRESIDENT LISTENS TO

THE PEOPLE, HE'LL GET THE

MESSAGE. IF HE DOES, WE'LL

ALL BE PLAYERS. IF NOT, WE'LL

ALL BE THE LOSERS. THAT

54

Page 54 of 99 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu

WOULD BE A DISASTER.

I CAN ASSURE YOU THAT

REPUBLICANS CONTINUE TO BE

FULLY COMMITTED TO

REFORMING OUR HEALTH CARE

DELIVERY SYSTEM. WE

CONTINUE TO MEET ON A

WEEKLY BASIS AND WILL

REMAIN COMMITTED UNTIL

55

Page 55 of 99 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu

HEALTH CARE COSTS ARE

CONTAINED AND ALL

AMERICANS HAVE ACCESS TO

THE SYSTEM. WE MAY BE

LOCKED OUT OF THE WHITE

HOUSE, BUT WE REFUSE TO BE

LOCKED OUT OF THE DEBATE.

IF THE WHITE HOUSE REFUSES

TO INCLUDE THE FEDERATION

OF AMERICAN HEALTH SYSTEMS

56

Page 56 of 99 This document is from the collections at the Dole Archives, University of Kansas http://dolearchives.ku.edu

AND EVERY OTHER GROUP OF

PROFESSIONALS, THEN IT'S TIME

TO TELL THE WHITE HOUSE IT

NEEDS A CHECK-UP.

AGAIN I THANK YOU FOR

YOUR EFFORTS, AND LOOK

FORWARD TO WORKING WITH

YOU.
