Rick Scott in CBS "Face the Nation" interviews during 2019


On Health Care: Enact law so drug prices in US aren't higher than Europe

The problem is the cost of health care is too high in this country. That's why I put a bill out that requires transparency and says we're not going to allow pharmaceutical companies to charge us more than what they charge in Europe. I had the same issue when I ran a large hospital company. I said I had hospitals in Europe. I said I'm not paying more for drugs in Europe than I'm paying in the United States. It's not fair to Americans and that's why I'm going to work hard to get that passed.
