President Discusses Health Transparency in Minnesota

"We've got an interesting debate in health care in America. And I guess if I had to summarize how I view it, I would say there's a choice between having the government make decisions or consumers make decisions. I stand on the side of encouraging consumers. I think the most important relationship in health care is between the patient and their provider, the patient and the doc. ... And health care policy ought to be aimed at bolstering the consumer, empowering individuals to be responsible for health care decisions."
