Dr. Oz pushes Trump policy for seniors: 'Just work one year longer'

Dr. Mehmet Oz, President Donald Trump's administrator for the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS), pushed for American seniors to "work one year longer" because he claimed it would benefit the economy.

During a Wednesday White House briefing, Oz blamed low gross domestic product (GDP) growth for rising health care expenditures.

"We will correct that if we can get America to be healthier, because you can't be a wealthy nation without being a healthy nation," he argued.
