Health Care System Quotes

America's health care system is neither healthy, caring, nor a system.
Walter Cronkite

Health, Care, America

America's health care system is in crisis precisely because we systematically neglect wellness and prevention.
Tom Harkin

Health, Crisis, Care

One thing governors feel, Democrats and Republicans alike, is that we have a health care system that, if you're on Medicaid, you have unlimited access to health care, at unlimited levels, at no cost. No wonder it's running away.
Mike Huckabee

Health, Care, Away

Government is, by its very nature, a destroyer of liberties; the Obama administration, specifically, is promising to interfere with the economy and the health care system so profoundly that Washington will soon have us all in chains.
Thomas Frank

Nature, Health, Government

Since 1994, lawmakers on both sides of the aisle have considered it politically risky to offer a plan to fix America's broken health care system. The American public, though, has paid the price for this silence as health care costs skyrocketed, millions went uninsured, and millions more grappled with financial insecurity and hardship.
Ron Wyden

Health, Insecurity, Care

It's time to look beyond the budget ax to assure access to health care for all. It's time to look for bipartisan solutions to the problems we can tackle today, and to work together for tomorrow - building a health care system that works for all Americans.

Ron Wyden

Health, Power, Care

It is hard to miss the irony in the fact that the very same week that Republicans were publicly heralding Congressman Paul Ryan's plan to inject market forces into the American health care system, they were crafting a budget deal to strip them from the health reform law.
Ron Wyden

Health, Care, Hard

While Free Choice Vouchers didn't fulfill my vision of a health care system in which every American would be empowered to hire and fire their insurance company, they were a foothold for choice and competition and a safety valve for Americans whose employers are already forcing them to bear more and more of their family's health insurance costs.
Ron Wyden

Family, Health, Care

I have argued for years that we do not have a health care system in America. We have a disease-management system - one that depends on ruinously expensive drugs and surgeries that treat health conditions after they manifest rather than giving our citizens simple diet, lifestyle and therapeutic tools to keep them healthy.
Andrew Weil

Health, Diet, Care

You can't afford to get sick, and you can't depend on the present health care system to keep you well. It's up to you to protect and maintain your body's innate capacity for health and healing by making the right choices in how you live.
Andrew Weil

Health, Live, Care

The health care system is really designed to reward you for being unhealthy. If you are a healthy person and work hard to be healthy, there are no benefits.
Mike Huckabee

Work, Health, Care

Nurses are an integral component of the health care system, and it is important that we recognize the over 2.7 million registered nurses for the significant work that they do.
Nathan Deal

Work, Health, Care

I think the first and principle objective is to repeal Obamacare before it does lasting, fundamental damage to our health care system, to our individual liberty, to the relationship each of us has with his or her doctor.
Ted Cruz

Health, Care, Before

We want to make sure that we incentivize the health care system to be designed to provide you the best quality health care possible.
Valerie Jarrett

Health, Best, Care

America's health care system provides some of the finest doctors and more access to vital medications than any country in the world. And yet, our system has been faltering for many years with the increased cost of health care.
Paul Gillmor

Health, Care, Country

There are few in America that really know how to take advantage of the current health care system.
Matthew Lesko

Health, Care, America

Americans oppose Obamacare because they understand that it is inconsistent with our liberties and our idea of limited government and that it will destroy the best health care system in the world.
David Limbaugh

Health, Best, Government

Too many of my constituents, like many other hard working Americans across the country, are suffering unnecessarily due to our flawed health care system.
John Conyers

Health, Care, Hard

Our health care system is the finest in the world, but we still have too many uninsured Americans, too high prices for prescription drugs, and too many frivolous lawsuits driving our physicians out of state or out of business.
Judy Biggert

Health, Business, Care

We have really good data that show when you take patients and you really inform them about their choices, patients make more frugal choices. They pick more efficient choices than the health care system does.
Donald Berwick

Good, Health, Care

Mike Ferguson

Health, Best, Medical

Mark Steyn

I have young kids. The fiscal burden that will be imposed on them is going to depend primarily on whether we tackle this looming problem in our health care system - with rising costs that don't seem, by the way, to be necessarily associated with higher quality. That is the key burden that they will face.
Peter Orszag

Health, Care, Young

What we're really trying to do is level out the health care system. It has gotten so one-sided as more and more people have been put into managed care; in fact, about 70 percent of the patients in the country.
Charlie Norwood

Health, Care, Trying

Let's face it, in America today we don't have a health care system, we have a sick care system.
Tom Harkin

Health, Today, Care

I have stood on the front lines of the health care system as a doctor, patient and concerned parent. Those experiences have served as my guideposts throughout the struggle to reform America's health care system. And it's those same experiences that tell me that fear and election hysteria should not overshadow the reality of reform.
Jim McDermott
