Dr. Oz on the future of Medicaid, Trump’s Megabill and AI-avatar health care

Published

on

Dr. Mehmet Oz, former TV host and Pennsylvania Senate candidate, is one of America’s most famous physicians. Now he’s running the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, which means he’s in charge of programs that provide health care for about half of all Americans. He sits down with White House Bureau Chief Dasha Burns to discuss potential Medicaid cuts, his big plans to lower drug pricing, why he’s fielding early morning phone calls from President Donald Trump, and his advice to patients to “be curious” about their health.

Plus, Burns is joined by senior political columnist and politics bureau chief Jonathan Martin to discuss his juicy column about the Ohio governor’s race featuring Elon Musk, Vivek Ramaswamy and former Ohio State football coach Jim Tressel. And senior legal affairs reporter Kyle Cheney joins to discuss the showdown between Trump and the courts over his “Liberation Day” tariffs.

As I begin my first week as Blue Light News’s Global Editor-in-Chief, I want to start by thanking you — our readers and subscribers — for the trust you place in Blue Light News.

Our best-in-class reporters and editors — all 550 of them around the globe — start each day focused on a singular mission: delivering original, authoritative reporting on politics, policy and power to help you make better sense of our rapidly changing world.

Their work begins by going deep in the power centers we cover. Our reporters draw on unparalleled experience and sourcing to guide you through the people and institutions driving decisions in capitals like Washington, Brussels, London, Ottawa, Berlin, Paris and Sacramento — and soon Madrid and Canberra — while also connecting the dots as power flows across borders and sectors.

Our superpower is covering not only where power is today, but where it is moving, so you can be better prepared for what comes next.

What I love most about Blue Light News is we never stand still. Innovation has been part of our DNA from the start, and in the months ahead, you will see Blue Light News continue to evolve the ways we deliver our journalism — on new platforms, in new formats and in more ways throughout your day — all with the goal of making our reporting more useful to you.
