CONFIDENTIAL
SU - 11th Draft
1/22/71
- 7 -
I will propose:
-- A program to insure that no American family will
be prevented from obtaining basic medical care by inability
to pay.
-- A major increase in and redirection of aid to medical
schools, to greatly increase the number of doctors and other
health personnel.
- - New incentives to encourage better preventive medi-
Sub
cine, greater use of nurses and medical assistants and a
fairer distribution of medical services -- so that care is
vot
available where sick people are rather than being concen-
trated primarily where rich people are.
I will also ask appropriation of an extra $100 million to launch an
intensive campaign to find a cure for cancer, and I will ask later for
whatever
Can effectively be used,
what additional funds may become necessary. The time has come
when the same kind of concentrated effort that split the atom and took
man to the moon should be turned toward conquering this dread dis -
ease. Surely these can be cured, and they must be cured. Let us
make a total national commitment to do so. achieve This goal.
