“The challenge for us as well is to make sure that the plan that we produce has a value. I think sometimes we leave value out of it because we are talking about this captured audience, and I guess that is how people can look at the current health care system and say, it is the best in the world. When we talk to seniors, they will point out every problem that exists in Medicare today from the standpoint of the limited scope of coverage to the cost and the out-of-pocket cost, $760 when one really gets sick and has to go in the hospital. That is an area we should look at, but we are doing drugs now. We have to make sure that it fits in that modernized Medicare system of the future. If not, our work would only be changed by somebody else's mistake later on.”
