If we ensure access to health care and 'best practice' asthma treatment for children, especially those at high risk, there is the potential to save the health care system billions of dollars.

Irwin Redlener

I think basic disease care access and basic access to health care is a human right. If we need a constitutional amendment to put it in the Bill of Rights, then that's what we ought to do. Nobody with a conscience would leave the victim of a shark attack to bleed while we figure out whether or not they could pay for care. That tells us that at some level, health care access is a basic human right. Our system should be aligned so that our policies match our morality. Then within that system where everybody has access, we need to incentivize prevention, both for the patient and the provider.

David Katz

The belief that public health measures are not intended for people like us is widely held by many people like me. Public health, we assume, is for people with less - less education, less-healthy habits, less access to quality health care, less time and money.

Eula Biss

I want to make sure more people - not fewer - have access to quality, affordable health care.

Sharice Davids

We can only imagine what would happen to our health care and to the quality of our health care here in North Dakota if we took the federal government out of health care.

Heidi Heitkamp

Whether it's making sure that families have access to quality health care and child care, or making sure that our children receive the best educational opportunities we can give them, we must remain committed to these needs because our children are our future.

Blanche Lincoln

Imagine an America where the health care system is dramatically improved simply because people need to go to the doctor less. Preventive health care, aka taking care of your own body, is a sensible way to go!

Tara Stiles

I think the U.S. is conflicted. When it comes to our own health care, we all want the best - access to the latest and most important technology. At the same time, health care is typically purchased in an institutional setting. So we purchase it in the aggregate, but we consume it as individuals.

Ron Williams

While most Americans have access to the best oral health care in the world, low-income children suffer disproportionately from oral disease.

Mike Simpson

We need more access to quality health care, not less.

Elizabeth Esty

Overall, female scientists have fewer resources than male scientists, just as poor people have less access to health care. But if you compare male and female scientists with identical resources, you find that the women are just as likely to be successful.

Alison Gopnik

Let's make health care a meritocracy. Access to the best care goes to people who did what they could to avoid becoming ill.

Astro Teller

We have to help people with their expenses of their health care, their access to their health care, and certainly for the actual care that they receive.

Dan Donovan

America enjoys the best health care in the world, but the best is no good if folks can't afford it, access it and doctor's can't provide it.

Bill Frist

When you talk about feminism, you're talking about the rights of all women and their families to live in dignity, peace, and security. It's about giving women access to health care and other basic rights.

Linda Sarsour

I think we can see how blessed we are in America to have access to the kind of health care we do if we are insured, and even if uninsured, how there is a safety net. Now, as to the problem of how much health care costs and how we reform health care ... it is another story altogether.
