Bill de Blasio: We’ll Work out the Finances for Health Care for All Later

‘First we’re getting you your health care’

EXCERPT:

REPORTER: "How do you determine — I mean, this has come up in the Fair Fares program. How do you detrmine sort of what's one's income is, what they can pay? It seems fairly complicated."

DE BLASIO: " Big difference to begin, this is literally universal. So we're first getting people health care. I want to make sure that's really clear. Unlike the stereotype of old, of like, you know, before we deal with your profuse bleeding, you fill out these forms. Oh wait, you don't have an insurance card — no. First we're getting your health care, then we're working out the finances. Go ahead on how sliding scales generally work."
