This announcement is an example of what Kyle's team and Secretary Kinney's team throughout the government is doing.
So we ask, you ask about Omaha framework.
We ask, where is government spending money and how can we influence and nudge the system into a better direction?
So we've talked about school lunches.
We've talked about military food.
Hospitals are a big one.
So hospitals are dependent on Medicare, Medicaid funding.
Their lifeblood is government funding.
And if you go to, every patient knows, as you've talked about, I was at Stanford Hospital with my mom, the Mayo Clinic with my mom, they served her Coca-Cola and she was a diabetic, dying of a metabolic condition from cancer.
It is absolutely disgraceful what hospitals are serving patients.
And we have asked a simple question to hospitals, which is why is the government paying you
trillions of dollars
over a trillion dollars, almost two.
Why are we paying you this to serve food that is fueling the chronic diseases that 90% of those payments are going to?
90% of healthcare spending, of the government healthcare spending goes to treating metabolic chronic diseases that are highly tied to ultra processed food and ultra processed food, sugary drinks, refined carbohydrates, fried food.
It's what hospitals are serving.
So what can happen?
CMS can issue conditions of participation.
They can write letters saying what we expect for paying these trillion-dollar-plus of government money.
And for the first time, the government is issuing a letter to hospitals saying, if you're going to take government money, you cannot be serving diabetic and obese patients sugary drinks.
