Dr. Mehmet Oz

And again, it's for end of life.

So not everyone should survive.

100% survival rate in these hospices.

I met many patients.

One woman, I just can't forget, get her out of my mind.

I had a brother that she loved dearly, and he'd had some health problems, but he was fine.

He was living by himself.

He was approached by a young woman who said, hey, listen, you know, I got some things I can bring you to help you out if you want to just sign this document.

He signs the document.

What the document said was that you're giving up all your health care to go into hospice.

Which is, by the way, that's the deal, right?

If you're going to pass away anyway within a few months because you've got metastatic cancer, you don't need to have all those ICU protections and all these extra crazy things about happen.

You just want to be able to be made comfortable.

Signs and documents.

And lo and behold, he has a health problem.

He doesn't have access to care because he gave up his insurance and the man died.

He died.

I wrote a letter and I visited because I care.

I want him to care as much as I do about the most vulnerable people in California.

I do think political patronage might be part of this.
