host: representative tim murphy is our guest. you are next. ks for theatn fon opportunity to express myself. have already made up their minds to ensure the president will get only one turn. -- they wilills nominees.he the website is secure. guest: have you gone to the website and try to purchase health care policy? caller: i registered and waiting. guest: through the website? caller: i went through the website and i gave them my information. guest: you are waiting for what to come to you? great. should have gotten some information in terms of discounts and your income level. plan willo doubt this be better for some. those with pre-existing conditions. we do not want their insurance cut. there is not a democrat plan -- for a small percentage, they will get a stipend. some will be paying a lot more, more.o 200% those were people that were told if they like their health care, they can keep it. there is a lot of things where people are scratching their heads saying, that is not what you told us before. what a shame it is when we should be figuring

congressman kim murp -- tim murphy says despite kathleen sebelius and other members of the team that all is well and on track of the launch of the affordable care act there were facts there were doubts. the white house finds itself once again on the defensive. >> the fact is when a site like this is going developed and it is tested problems arise checklists are developed and problems are addressed. we believe that the problems were being addressed and while there would be some glitches upon launch on october 1st that obviously we never anticipated we would never have the kind of severe problems we had. >> meantime there are reports that the justice department argued in court millions would lose their coverage even before president obama apologized for telling americans they could keep their insurance plans and doctors if they like them. even under the obama administration it is projected that more group health plans will transition to their requirements under the regulations as time goes on. as a result of that many people are commenting now that the obama administration knew the hea

congressman tim murphy from pennsylvania who is also a member of course of the house energy and commerce committee. he is also a psychologist and joins us now from pittsburgh. congressman, good afternoon and welcome fox news. >> good to see you. >> good to see you as always. she was in the hotseat and you grilled her as others during the committee hearing. what do you want to hear her say when she appears before the senate finance committee? >> i don't know if there is much they can say except to try to continue to put the cloak of silence over things and pretend everything is okay which they will probably continue to do. it is clear the white house knew you and secretary sebelius knew if you liked your plan you won't lose it. what could be more personal than a person seeing a doctor for an illness or psychiatrist for a problem and developed a relationship of trust and knowledge and now they will be told their plan has changed. that plan may not allow those doctors and hospitals in their network, and all the president can say is go to the exchange is sign up for something else? this is n

republican congressman tim murphy who chaired the hearing on the issue. chairman, what did you learn? >> it's pretty startling to know that here the administration -- hhs, cmf, wanted mckenzie to do an odd it how well -- audit how well they're doing, and mr. chao participated in the information. but even though he is the chief information officer, the one that is supposed to macthe web site, nobody told him the results of that. he specifically said despite having multiple meets with ms. ms. 'tavner, she never brought it up to him. how could he possibly do his job if they're not telling him what the problems are he has to deal with? >> i almost felt sorry for him. it was like he was in the hot seat today. and he just didn't know. a lot of this was -- if we take him at his word and the followup e-mails and writing, none of this was being conveyed to him and that's important why? why does that show the house of cards potentially this was built on in. >> sure. it raises the question of trying to fool congress, but they're fooling themselves into thinking ever

i want to bring in republican tim murphy, a psychologist who's calling to reforms from the national health care system. congressman, thanks so much for being here. you took to the house floor, and why you didn't mention gus deeds by name, you seemed to allude him in your remarks. who is to blame for him not getting the help he needs? this all seems like it could have been avoided. >> we have a long list of blame here, it goes to the federal, state, and local level. on the federal level, there's been a bush from some agencies who have actually reduced the number of hospital beds. >> reduced? >> reduceded the number of hospital beds and reduced a mandatory outpatient treatment as well. federal dollars paying agencies to advocate to reduce that. >> why, to save money? >> back in the '50s, we had half a million hospital beds and now we have 40,000. and even though you listed virginia as having around 20, 22, that is still listed in the serious area, because we need about 50 beds per 100,000 population. when medications came out in the 1950s, we found a lot of people in hospitals really didn't

pennsylvania republican tim murphy pressed the point. >> and so, this is a major report that went as high up as the secretary-- we don't know-- saying that there were serious problems with this. and you're saying that even though you were interviewed by this, you did not ever have this briefing yourself? >> no, i didn't. >> reporter: chao did say 30% to 40% of the system that supports the online exchange still needs to be developed and tested. at a separate hearing, one private security expert warned the healthcare web site has flaws that put consumer data at "critical risk," but white house spokesman jay carney insisted today the information people give is safe. >> the privacy and security of consumers' personal information are a top priority. when consumers fill out their online marketplace applications, they can trust that the information that they are providing is protected by stringent security standards. >> reporter: meanwhile, house republicans pressed for senate democrats to take up a bill that lets millions of americans keep their existing insurance plans. later, at a busine

tim murphy. one minute. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman from pennsylvania is recognized for one minute. mr. murphy: mr. chairman, the majority is very concerned about health insurance plans and very concerned about those people who have lost their plans. when this bill was originally marked up a couple of years ago in the energy and commerce committee, repeatedly we heard from members of the other side of the aisle saying that if people liked their plan they could keep it indefinitely. this needed a fix several months ago and the president of the united states said he wants republicans and democrats to work together for a solution. we're offering to work together. and yet the president has said he would veto this. but the president offered only a partial fix. it would lead to more confusion. the question is, it will lead to class action suits against insurance companies who fail to comply with the law and many states are saying this partial fix is not sufficient. we need a legislative fix. we need a w

i want to briefly say to look out on the horizon, congressman tim murphy of pennsylvania has been working for months on legislation that can optimize the mental health system. this is an area that's under discussion as well as creating enough beds. because, again, not for nothing. if you get sent to an emergency room and you're felt to be emergent enough to be held, what is it with a four-hour period of discharge? if you were dangerous in three hours, why would you not be dangerous at five. >> and the fact that there's not a bed doesn't seem like an okay answer. >> exactly. >> are you being optimistic about the horizon of change. you get 72 hours. i can come in, raving like a lunatic. my entire family could say, please. i'll be medicated for 72 hours, stabilized, i'll go in front of a judge. it is then on the family to make the case that i'm a danger. >> that's right. >> that's very hard. >> absolutely. >> then oom out. >> just because the law is being proposed doesn't mean it's going to be passed. what i'm saying is, sure, when you -- this may be a broader discussion. i've always said to
