Decoding Retirement

Dr. Oz’s plan to stop Medicare waste and rising costs

29 Jul 2025

Description

Dr. Mehmet Oz, now head of the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, lays it out plain: healthcare isn’t just a cost, it’s an investment to win the future. Want to fix Medicare, Medicaid, and save America trillions? Dr Oz says get people healthy, working, and off government dependency.  On Decoding Retirement, Dr. Oz tells host Bob Powell that he is cutting waste within Medicare and Medicaid - and demanding results.  He backs work requirements as common sense and insists medical debt must be tackled through price transparency and enforcement. Rising Medicare premiums? He’s pushing reforms to protect seniors’ wallets. Bottom line: Oz tells Powell he’s in the “change business” - and he’s here to make healthcare work for hardworking Americans. Yahoo Finance's Decoding Retirement is hosted by Robert Powell.
