MEDICARE COMMISSION
Q:
Why haven't you appointed a chair for your Medicare Commission? What's the
hold up?
A:
First, let me say I am very pleased with my appointments to the Commission. I believe
they will serve the Commission and the nation well. The Chair is required by law to be
mutually agreed to by the Republican leadership and myself. We have yet to reach a
consensus on a candidate that is acceptable for all of us. However, I am confident that
we will be able to come to closure on this in short order.
Q:
Have you given up on Senator Breaux? Are there other candidates that you would
fmd acceptable?
A:
I believe Senator Breaux would be a great addition to the Commission and a very good
Chainnan. For this reason, I would support him in that capacity. I have not given up on
him as a possibility for the Chair.
Q:
Are you ruling out anyone other than Senator Breaux?
A:
No. But I am not going to get involved in any public discussion about this appointment.
We plan to get closure on this issue very soon and it would not be constructive to
speculate on this matter at this time.
Q:
Do you think the Medicare Commission is dead on arrival?
A:
Of course not. Conventional wisdom in Washington is often wrong. In 1996, few
people thought that
Republicans and
Democrats could ever
agree on a balanced
budget. I am
confident that this
Commission will
make an extremely
valuable contribution
in helping this nation
address the challenges
facing the Medicare
program.

Q:
Do you think the Chairman or the Commission should uphold the Speaker's no tax
pledge in its upcoming deliberations?
A:
As I have mentioned before, I do not know if taxes will be necessary to address the
challenges the program faces. However, I do not believe that any preconditions should
be placed on the members of this Commission. I do think we should wait before we start
to speculate on what they might be recommending to address the challenges Medicare
faces.
MEDICARE POLICY
Q:
Will you be supporting proposals to extend health care coverage to older Americans
who are not yet eligible for Medicare?
A:
I have always been extremely concerned about this vulnerable population, and the
difficulties that many of these Americans face. These older Americans are one of the
most difficult to insure populations: they tend to be less healthy and are more likely to
have problems accessing affordable health care.
I have asked for infonnation to better understand the challenges this population faces and
options to assist them to obtain more affordable health care coverage. However, it is early
in my review process and no decisions have been made at this time.
Q:
What is your response to reports that Medicare is overpaying for prescription drugs
by $447 million?
A:
I am well aware of concerns about Medicare's overpayments for prescription drugs. For
this reason, I included a proposal in last year's budget to ensure that the program pays no·
more than the actual costs for these drugs. This proposal is consistent with the IG's
report and recommendations that have been reported on in recent days.
I fully intend to include this proposal in my upcoming FY 1999 budget. If Congress
passes this provision, the Department estimates that it will save millions of dollars.
Q:
Oncologists claim if this proposal were enacted, they would be forced to stop seeing
Medicare beneficiaries because their payment rates are so low. Aren't you
concerned about access limitations?
A:
Medicare, and the taxpayers who support it, should not be forced to pay excessively high
prices for drugs. If oncologists believe that Medicare is not compensating them
adequately, they should provide infonnation that we have requested to document their
case. If they can illustrate there is a problem, we should consider modifying our
reimbursement to physicians for their services, but not the payment rates they receive for

the drugs they administer. Medicare should not, however, pay more for what the
physicians pay for these medications. That is not fair to the beneficiaries, the program,
and the taxpayers.

Q.
A.
During the Race Town Hall Meeting in Akron two weeks ago, you announced a
proposal for Education Opportunity Zones. What are these Zones, and how will
they help improve educational opportunities for minorities?
Urban school districts around the country, almost all with large concentrations of low
income and minority youngsters, face some of the toughest educational challenges of all,
both because of the circumstances in which many of their students live and because of the
problems of large education bureaucracies. Yet in recent years we have begun to see
important signs of improvement in our city school systems. Cities from Philadelphia to
Detroit to San Francisco have reported recent increases in test scores. Many are raising
. academic standards for their students, and 15 of the largest cities volunteered to
participate in my national tests. Chicago and other cities are ending social promotions,
beginning to tum around failing schools, and remove weak teachers from the classroom.
Los Angeles now gives bonuses to teachers who meet high national standards and
become master teachers. These are places that are getting very serious about improving
schools.
These are steps that we must encourage, strengthen and spread. That is what the
Education Opportunity Zones will do--it will help more cities raise academic standards,
hold students, schools and educators accountable for meeting them. It will help cities
provide teachers with the training they need, help schools implement programs that work,
and provide students who need it extra help in after school or summer school programs.

In order to insure the most effective coordination of our activities, we
have scheduled a meeting on Tuesday, December 16, from 10:30 a.m. to 11:30
a.m., in Room 180 OEOB, to discuss future activities of the President's
Advisory Board on Race. We will outline the proposed schedule of Advisory
Board meetings, as well as outreach activities to the corporate community,
the faith community, and the education community in which Board members
are involved, and we will seek your suggestions and ideas on all of these
activities.
I hope each office will designate at least one representative
to attend.
We are extremely grateful for the cooperation we have received from all
White House offices.
I hope that by reviewing with you our plans well in
advance and obtaining your input at an early stage, we can further
strengthen cooperation among all of us.
Thanks.

TEXT:
Elena,
I am faxing you the briefing paper prepared by DOJ on whether the INS
should process the Salvadorans, Guatamalans and Eastern Europeans covered
by the recent law under the ususal procedure (immigration court) or under
a more expedited administrative adjudication. As we discussed, the groups
are pushing for a regulation (with presumptions), but we all (DOJ, NSC and
us) favor an administrative adjudication scheme (though, INS more favors
no change to the current process).
Maria seems to agree that an admini
strative procedure would be a fair result, but has not yet concluded that
it is the best solution (wants to further consider a regulation) .
I thought you might want to look over an outline of the administratie
scheme before our meeting this afternoon with the advocates (2pm in room
476).
(OPL, NSC, DOJ, INS, us).
Thanks.

TEXT:
Here are some questions to be discussed during Monday's MLK day meeting.
Please forward them to your boss if appropriate.
If anyone sees a
compelling reason why the town hall could not occur on MLK day, please
e-mail Sylvia and cc me as soon as possible.
Otherwise, the most likely
scenario will involve service events by POTUS and/or other principals and
cabinet members possibly with a town hall meeting sometime during the same
day.
Does anyone see any con's with having a town hall on that day?
Would anyone argue that the town hall would be too focused on our
differences than corning together? Is it more conflict vs. healing?
Does DPC or NEC have any policy announcements that can tie in with
MLK?
Tie in with SOTU ramp-up?
POTUS has a definite desire to do service event.
Should it be in the
District? If he were to go to another city would he not catch criticism
for ignoring needs in his own back yardD8? If not, what cities have some
appropriate events/plCograms?
Rev. Jackson-Wall Street event--what is the fallout, if any, if POTUS
does not participate? Would the event go on without him? Is there an
appropriate surrogate for P?
Any requests from key Members of Congress?
Mayors, Governors, etc.?
Are there any built-in "traditional" observances (Ben Johnson) which could
be combined with service somewhere?
Are they primarily morning,
afternoon, or evening events?
African-American church
Lincoln Memorial
National Service
Is there a tie-in with General Powell/America's Promise?
�ARMS Email System
What are the pitfalls/downside to doing an event with him? Any other
outsiders to include?
Since the President is very high on service theme, if he
were to end up doing town hall and not service, 1) how big of a problem
would this be; 2) if ok, we will still need a strong presence by the
Cabinet doing service.
What events are currently on the board for PIR? What are the specific
events in which cities?
Activities of other principals
What are the existing plans by VP, HRC, MEG (Jen Palmieri)?
These are many of the questions which we will try to bring together on
Monday. Thanks. Again, if there are any major problems with town hall
being scheduled on MLK day, please express those to Sylvia ASAP so that
she can incorporate them into the decision on town hall scheduling.

The following is the list of
panelists:
1. William Bennett
2. E.D. Hirsch (this is the "traditionalist" school reformer that Mike
recommended; not yet confirmed; Mike is calling today)
3. Gary Orfield (Harvard professor; has done a lot with deseg. and racial
isolation issues)
4. Diana Lam (Superintendant of the San Antonio public schools; system is
overwhelmingly Latino)
5. Deborah Meier (heads up the Mission Hill Charter School in Roxbury, MA)
6. James Comer (Yale University professor of psychiatry; well known
expert of school reform within education circles; African-American)
7. Jonathan Kozol (author of Savage Inequalities)
8. Waldemar ("Bill") Rojas (superintendant of San Francisco public
schools; very diverse system)
Mike, Tanya, Bill and I are reviewing the proposed questions (a copy of

TEXT:
America's Promise (Gen. Powell's organization) has invited me to a meeting
in New York on Wednesday to discuss their next steps on child health
outreach. You may recall that the President and Powell have talked about
working together on this issue.
The meeting includes Ray Chambers, the
Academy of pediatrics, Robert Wood Johnson, and Rob Reiner, on behalf of
his "I Am Your Child" campaign.
I am assuming I should go, and am
consulting with Jeanne to make sure I am up to speed on Medicaid/CHIP
outreach.

USCM Homelessness Survey
Following is some basic information on the report to give you an idea of
what they will release.
Emily and I will have a hard copy of the survey's
executive summary walked around to you.
Please remember that the
information is embargoed until Monday. We can provide you with more
detailed information on the survey if necessary.
You may contact me,
Emily, Lynn or Mona.
Mayor Riley of Charleston, SC, and Secretary Cuomo will hold a press
conference, Monday, December 15, at 10:30 am, to release the U. S.
Conference of Mayors (USCM) 13th Annual Survey on Hunger and Homelessness
in U.S. Cities. The survey reports information taken from 29 major
cities.
It shows that over the past year, requests for emergency food and
emergency shelter have increased and that a significant amount of the
cities' emergency food assistance centers and emergency shelters turn
people away.
The survey shows that the strong economy has had little or
no effect on either hunger or homelessness:
low-paying jobs lead the list
of causes of hunger identified by the city officials; requests for
assisted housing by low income families and individuals increased in
�ARMS Email System
three-fourths of the cities. The report shows that city officials believe
welfare reform will have a greater effect on low-income people than the
economy in the coming years, and that while there may be additional
services; or funding for them, available, it will not be enough to meet
the increasing need.

Florida Higher Education. For the past year and a half, DOEd's Office for Civil Rights
(OCR) has been working in partnership with Florida to resolve higher education

remain unresolved, including agreement on the applicable legal standards and the need
for affirmative action programs to satisfy "strict scrutiny." On November 19, OCR sent a
letter to the governor's office indicating that if OCR and the state are unable to resolve
these issues within the next few weeks, OCR will initiate a more traditional civil rights
investigation of statewide higher education issues.

complaints from nine white families alleging that the Palm Beach County School District,
in order to achieve racial balance, is discriminating against their children, on the basis of

percent black students, instead of allowing them to attend one of two high schools closer
to their neighborhood. OCR is currently evaluating the complaint, which has received
some media attention.
Ohio Higher Education. DOEd's OCR recently wrote to the Ohio Governor's office
regarding the long-standing civil rights case involving Ohio's only historically black

MEMORANDUM FOR THE PRESIDENT
FROM:
Bruce Reed
Elena Kagan
RE:
DPC Weekly Report
Crime -- Boston Juvenile Homicide: Last night, a Boston youth was shot to death,
ending Boston's two and a half-year streak of no juvenile homicides by firearms. The 16
year-old Dorchester youth was unarmed and had no known criminal history.
Crime -- Homicide Study: This week, the Justice Department released a final National
Institute of Justice study of homicide in eight U.S. cities. Some of the key findings of the
ten-year study (1985-94) include: 1) Guns are increasingly becoming the preferred means of
homicide; 2) Homicide rates are closely linked to cocaine use, with a strong link between crack
cocaine use and violence; 3) Youth black males between ages 18 to 24 represented a
disproportionately high percentage of homicide victims, with homicide rates increasing for this
group in all cities; 4) Homicides where the victim and offender were related or intimate made up
only a small portion of all homicides, but were a sizable portion of female-victim homicides; and
5) No solid links were established between homicide rates and factors such as income
distribution, education level, or household type. Employment levels and poverty were found to
be somewhat related to homicide trends. The eight cities studied were: Atlanta, Washington
DC, Detroit, Tampa, New Orleans, Richmond, Indianapolis, and Miami .
. Crime -- Death Penalty Study: This Sunday, the Justice Department will release new
data showing an increase in prisoner executions. During the first 11 months of this year, 70
prisoners were executed in 16 states-- 25 more than all oflast year. Texas alone accounted for
more than half of all executions (36), the highest number in a single state since 1930. In
addition, in 1996, the length of time a prisoner sat on death row before execution was 10 years
and 5 months-- 9 months shorter than 1995. Among the 358 individuals executed between 1977
and 1996: 56 percent were white; 37 percent were black; 21 percent were Hispanic; and 3 percent
were other races.
Welfare Reform -- Reports Released by Union-Sponsored Group: On Wednesday,
Jobs With Justice, a group funded primarily by AFSCME, SEIU, and the AFL-CIO, released two
�Automated Records Management System
Hex-Dump Conversion
reports critical of welfare refonn. The first, called Welfare Refonn as we know it, seems
designed to discourage states and cities from sponsoring workfare programs. As you know, the
public employee unions are very concerned about the effects of workfare because, as the report
says, "In large cities already crippled by downsizing, workfare participants have proven to be an
irresistible, cheap labor force that can be applied to waning city services." Welfare recipients
quoted in the report complain that workfare assignments don't lead to real jobs, aren't paid as
well as comparable work, and don't meet all the required health and safety standards. While
some of the specific charges are worrisome, the general implication is that no one on welfare
should be required to work unless they are trained and placed in a skilled, well-paid, unionized
job.
The second report, Welfare Refonn: The Jobs Aren't There argues that there are twice as
many welfare recipients seeking work as there are low wage jobs. First, we should note that the
U.S. economy has historically shown a tremendous capacity to absorb new workers -- such as the
millions of women and baby boomers who joined the workforce in the last 30 years -- and most
economists expect it to do so again. Second, we believe that this particular study understates the
number of low-skilled jobs being created and overstates the number of welfare recipients needing
jobs. For example, the study estimates that only 430,000 low skilled jobs were created in 1997
and 270,000 will be created in 1998. This underestimates the number of low skilled jobs
because it counts only jobs in certain occupational categories (those with incomes in the lowest
20 percent.) This method leaves out many low-skilled jobs in other occupational categories,
where the average income is higher. It also seems low compared to the total new jobs being
created -- 404,000 in November alone.
The report also assumes one-third of all adults on welfare, or 1.2 million persons, will
enter the labor force next year. This is a very high estimate. While it is true that 30 percent of
adult welfare recipients must be participating in "work activities" in 1998, not all will need
newly created jobs because 1) some welfare recipients are already working and thus won't need
"new" jobs; and 2) states can lower the required work participation rate due to caseload
reductions -- for example, a state whose caseloads had declined by 10 percent since 1995 would
have to meet only a. 20 percent work participation rate. For these reasons, HHS staff have
estimated that between 440,000 and 880,000 individuals will need to participate in "work
activities" under TANF in 1998 (the upper bound assumes no caseload reduction). However,
not all 440,000 to 880,000 people would need "jobs" as defined by economic statistics because
the law allows community service, workfare, vocational education, high school (for teen parents),
and some job search to count toward "work participation."
Welfare -- Food Stamps for Legal Immigrants: You asked about an article in this
week's New York Times that describes the impact of food stamp cutoffs on legal immigrants in
New York. Nation-wide, the welfare law cut off food stamps to over 700,000 legal immigrants.
Most cutoffs took place in September. Our budget last year focused on restoring SSI and
Medicaid benefits to legal immigrants, rather than food stamps, and as you know we achieved a
significant restoration of these benefits in the balanced budget act. Now advocates are pushing
2
�Automated Records Management System
Hex-DiJmp Conversion
us to tum to food stamps and include full restoration of these benefits in our new budget, at a cost
of $3.2 billion over five years.
We are considering this option as part of the budget process, although a partial restoration
seems more likely -- restoring benefits to some subset of the population, such as children,
families w:ith children, and/or others. One important question is how seriously Congress would
consider such a proposal. In contrast to this year's battle over SSI and Medicaid, we will not
have the forcing effect of impending cutoffs or the leverage of the balanced budget act this time
around. The other major area where benefits have not been restored is SSI and Medicaid for
legal immigrants who entered the country after the welfare law was signed, which would cost as
much as $6.6 billion over five years. However, this area has considerably less political support
at this time.
States have the option of using their own funds to continue food stamp benefits, as a
result of legislation we supported earlier this year. Twelve states have done so or plan to do so,
at least in part, with Washington, Nebraska, and Rhode Island restoring all benefits. New York
has made it a county option to restore benefits to the elderly and disabled only. New Jersey and
California have offered partial restorations as well.

TEXT:
Elena,
This afternoon, Maria held an advocates meeting to discuss the
implementation of the Central American legislation.
First, the fax that I
sent you earlier was more of an advocacy piece by the EOIR on why we
should not do an administrative remedy (they want to keep it).
DOJ has
since convinced EOIR of their decision to proceed with this administrative
alternative if possible.
At the meeting, the advocates stated that: (1) they want a regulation that
provides for a presumption of extreme hardship for those covered by the
legislation. The advocates maintain that the INS grant rates are actually
much lower for Salvadorans and Guatamalans then INS says they are, in part
because of the wide discretion given to immigration judges that allows for
caprice to sometimes determine outcomes.
Thus, they argue that without a
regulation that provides a presumption of extreme hardship, they will
still have low grant rates; and (2) that they would prefer, with our
without a regulation, to proceed with an administrative adjudication
rather than with EOIR (admin judges) .
We explained to them our concerns about doing a regulation: (1) that we
could not do administratively what the Congress expressly did not do by
legislation -- i.e., provide amnesty for the Guat. and Sal.; and (2) that
we do not want to create by regulation a definition of "extreme hardship"
for this class of aliens for this adjudication that is different from how
we adjudicate extreme hardship in other circumstances.
However, we did
express a willingness to further explore an adminstrative adjudicative pro
cess (within INS), and that we would look into developing training
materials and guidance for the asylum officers who would be adjudicating
these claims that sets out with particularity the standard that should be
used for making these determinations.
It would not be as clean as a
regulation, but it would provide strong guidance to the INS officers on
what factors to look for, and thus somewhat direct their discretion in a
way that looks favorably on the group covered by the legislation.
So, we are pretty much where we were with three remaining concerns: (1) I
would like to better clarify the grant rates for Salvadorans and Guat.
discussed by INS.
They say that the grant rates are much higher than the
groups think is valid (and did not come with the very specific information
that we had asked for last time) and, according to DOJ, there are wildly
disparate grant rates for these groups between offices (92% grant rate in
S.F.; 62% grant rate in LA). Morton from DOJ had no explanation for th
is.
(2) DOJ still owes us a breakdown of how many people covered by the
legislation are in each of the relevant procedural categories; i.e., how
many ABC class members v. non-ABC (rem: ABC class members have an
�ARMS Email System
entitlement to an asylum process anyway, so the admin. option would be
folded into what they would already be doing); how many have already had
an asylum hearing; how many are in some other INS process, etc.; and (3)
according to the legislation, those people with a letter of deportation
(b/c , for example, they were denied asylum but did not qualify for
suspension under the 1996 law) will have to file a motion to re-open
within
240 days of January 14, 1997. According to many present, this is too
short a time period to get a lawyer ($) and file a motion, unless the
filing is pro forma.
INS has to decide how to make this a reasonable
process.
All agree that we have to decide asap whether we are doing this admin.
adjudication and what it will look like. (to allow for notice to
communities, etc.).
I am, as before, in favor of the administrative
option, provided we can get some answers in the next couple of days on the
remaining questions.
Scott and DOJ also favor the admin. adjudication.
Maria, I think, is on board with the admin. adjud. as opposed to the reg.,
as long as the training and guidance are there.

Re: special ed budget
Right now, the special ed budget is level funded, and neither Bruce nor
Barbara Chow have been particularly open to an increase.
Barbara and I met with Mike Smith for ED's appeal--Mike pushed the issue,
and I suspect Riley will with POTUS.
One way Elena could get out of the meeting is to tell Judy that DPC was
involved in Mike Smith's OMB appeal, and that we therefore are fully aware
of ED's concerns and are trying to figure out how to take them into
account in a tight budget year.

TEXT:
Elena,
I wanted to follow up on your meeting earlier this week with Commissioner
Meissner.
Leanne talked the Bob Bach from INS today. Apparently, they
were concerned that OMB was moving forward with drafting chapters on INS
reform, and that this was going to somehow trump or co-opt our review.
I
spoke with Steve Mertens at OMB and sure enough, he was drafting such a
chapter. According to ·Steve, he was putting this in as a "straw man"
because he was sure that we wanted something in the budget document and
that he might as well put in his recommendations.
I asked Steve not to
include anything more than the most general statement (we are reviewing
recommendations) in the budget document until he heard otherwise from us.
This is the second time that Steve Mertens has made assumptions about our
process directly contrary to what we are telling him. At least for now,
we have spoken with INS and assured them that our process has not been
completed, etc. and that OMB was not driving what we do.
What should be our next step in all this? As this latest episode
indicates, OMB (or, at least Steve) is nervous about their budget
deadlines, and wants to have an idea from us if we are going to use the
document as a vehicle, how we are going to use it.
To make that
determination, we only nee~ to decide the broad questions, of course.
Thanks.

national conversation on race, with emphasis on the dialogue aimed at
problem solving. The Foundation Group is very interested in how we can
work together.
As we discussed, Judy would like to invite White House staff to join us in
the discussion.
please extend an invitation to appropriate White House
staff and copy me on the note.
The agenda and a list of foundation
participants will be forwarded to you under separate cover. Thanks

Bisexual, Transgender, and HIV/AIDS Related Legislation in 1997
is a telling picture of the prominence of states in the national
struggle occurring over the rights of gay, lesbian, bisexual, and
transgender
(GLBT) people.
Since the Task Force began tracking activity in state legislatures
�ARMS Email System
in 1995,. the number of GLBT related measures has increased each
year.
The intensity of these activities also remains high.
"1997 was an unequivocal step forward on our march to justice,"
stated Kerry Lobel, Task Force executive director.
"We've long
known that the states and local communities are not only the
barometer for the state of gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgender
rights in America; they are the eye of the storm," added Lobel.
New Hampshire and Maine's passage of comprehensive civil rights
laws for gays, lesbians, and bisexuals, Washington State's statewide
ballot initiative to ban employment discrimination based on sexual
orientation - the first such measure ever in the country - were
some of the year's highlights. (Washington's initiative was defeated,
and Maine's law will be put to a vote on February lOth.)
Also, the passage in 1997 of major domestic partnership initiatives
in the state of Hawaii and the cities of San Francisco and Chicago,
coupled with a record number of favorable domestic partner bills
introduced, reflects the growing importance of family issues in
the GLBT community.
The continued push forward for the freedom to
marry during the past year was also a critical component in the
effort for full recognition of GLBT families.
In the meantime, the right wing's rallying around a homophobic state
adoption worker in Texas is indicative of the attacks on GLBT
families that occurred in state legislatures in 1997 and foretells
a likely increase in such attacks during the 1998 state legislative
session.
1997 Summary Findings
The Task Force Tracked 248 pieces of legislation (compared with
160 in 1996) :
128 pieces of legislation classified as favorable appeared
in 38 states (compared with 61 in 25 states in 1996) .
?
?
120 pieces of legislation classified as unfavorable appeared
in 44 states (compared with 99 in 40 states in 1996) .
?
When marriage bills are removed, the figures show 124 favorable
measures and 74 unfavorable measures (compared with 56 and 50,
respectively, in 1996) .
?
The 46 anti-marriage bills represented 38% of the unfavorable
bills introduced, and 53% of all the unfavorable that were passed
into law.
?
HIV/AIDS measures represented the largest percentage (23%)
. of the favorable measures introduced as well as passed (38%).
?
civil rights measure represented the second largest percentage
of favorable bills introduced (20%) and 8% of the favorable bill passed.

Subject: Clinton administration waivers on Medicaid coverage
BAY AREA REPORTER
December 12, 1997
http://www.ebar.com
The administration waivers
by Bob Roehr
"White House drops plans for Medicaid to cover cost of AIDS drugs," read
the New York Times headline on Saturday, December 6. The decision, long
talked of privately, was now public. While the Clinton administration
insisted that did not mean it had given up on efforts to expand access to
therapy for low-income people, it offered no other options that they were
exploring.
AIDS advocates have long sought to extend access to care for PWAs through
an expansion of Medicaid under the waiver, process. Their aim is to
implement federal treatment guidelines for HIV. They thought they had won
the political game in April, when Vice President Al Gore made a commitment
to a fast track exploration and decision. But the idea now seems dead, and
advocates are fighting mightily to keep it from being completely buried.
"Right now, only
has put his butt
happening," said
the Presidential
by will of the Vice President saying politically that he
on the line that he wants to have this happen, is it
Clinton administration official Bob Hattoy, a member of
Advisory Council on HIV/AIDS.
One anonymous administration official told the Times that they feared
pressure from other disease groups to include them in any expansion of
�ARMS Email System
Page 20f3
Medicaid. The White House didn't want to offer those with HIV special
treatment or appear unfair.
Todd Summers, deputy to Sandra Thurman in the Office of National AIDS
Policy (ONAP), said the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS)
opposed creating a pilot program in Medicaid. HHS had serious ethical
questions "around creating a small group of people that would be allowed
access to drug treatments" while others were not. Left unexplained was how
this differed from the status quo. 'Revenue-neutrality'
The principal sticking point for the administration is "revenue-neutrality"
- in other words, it might cost money. Although number-crunchers
investigated the theory that over a five-year period the reduced costs for
hospitalization would offset increased costs of early intervention with
drug therapy, HHS's Victor Zonona said, "We kept running it with different
assumptions, but we weren't able to make it come out."
The previous day, the services committee of the President's Council closely
questioned working level administration officials on the issue.
Tom Henderson asked if in computing revenue-neutrality they could consider
items outside of Medicaid. "We have not so far," said Kathleen King with
the Health Care Finance Administration. That policy was formulated under
the Bush administration a~d continued by Clinton, but is not law.
HHS official Gary Claxton said that they "preliminarily included Medicare,
SSI, and SSDI in calculations, but found it was a fairly limited additional
savings," primarily because their time frame was five years. Most costs
during that period are Medicaid, while offsetting expense accrued over a
longer time. They did not take into account savings from preventing new
infections or added tax revenue from keeping people healthy and employed.
Claxton said that on a national basis they don't believe Medicaid expansion
would be revenue-neutral. But he left the door open to states to submit
proposals that could create savings in other parts of their state Medicaid
programs and move those savings into increased services for people with
HIV. Thus he shifted the political, and likely the financial, burden from
the federal government to the states.
"I hear you saying that you continue to look at this, but in the next
breath you say, you can't get there from here," said Henderson. "You've got
to step outside of what has traditionally been considered with
revenue-neutrality." Councilmember Nicholas Bollman added, "False hope is
just as bad as if you were not working on it at all."
Christine Lubinski, lobbyist for the AIDS Action Council, lashed out at the
Clinton administration. She said that Maine, Massachusetts, and Florida are
actively preparing waiver applications "in the absence of any leadership
from the federal government, including even a letter suggesting this might
be an interesting idea. It is not something states are going to dream up
without feeling that there is some support from the Feds." She has been
asking for a Federal letter for eight months, "and that hasn't happened."
"This is an HHS issue of thinking outside the box," she said. "Budget
neutrality is not statutory. If this administration decides it is in the
national interest to expand access to care to keep people with HIV alive,
they need to demonstrate the political will to do so. Because that is what
this is about."
Councilmember Rabbi Joseph Edelheit concluded,
"As long as budget
�ARMS Email System
Page 3 of3
neutrality remains the fundamental template, this will always be some
strange cat-and-mouse thing that has nothing to do with access to people
with HIV/AIDS."

Julie and I are working with the Corporation to retool our MLK Day service
proposal for the President, in light of his lack of excitement about the
DC Reads idea the Corporation came up with, and his interest in Steve
Waldman's ideas. (Steve says that, instead of talk or traditional policy
proposals, the race initiative should bring diverse groups together to
serve and solve a common problem, and suggests the President should start
partnerships, e.g., with black and white churches to fight drug addiction,
or with Hispanic and non-Hispanic high schools to renovate housing.)
Harris suggests we build on a CityYear initiative called Young Heroes.
On
10 consecutive Saturdays, CityYear members will mobilize junior high
school students of different races to work together on a common problem
(not defined).
Harris says we could make this bigger by having
AmeriCorps' NCCC program do the same thing, and try to make it even bigger
by asking the National Council of Churches if they would mobilize their
"education award" AmeriCorps members (that we launched at the summit) to
do it as well.
That way, the event is less of a photo op since we could
note that this work will continue for the next 9 weekends in locations
around the country.
The service itself could focus on kids/the 5 goals,
making a service summit connection.
In the meantime, a cast of thousands from the WH & race initiative will
meet on Monday to discuss options for that day.
Service is definitely a
serious option in everyone's minds, but doing a town hall is even more of
a given, with or without service.
This seems at odds with a service
message to me, but we're trying to learn more about their logic.
