WASHINGTON, Feb. 23 (UPI) -- President Barack Obama says he will focus more fully on the healthcare system in the United States when he hosts a White House summit on health reform.
"We've scheduled a healthcare summit next week," Obama said during closing remarks at a fiscal responsibility summit at the White House Monday. "(Everybody) here understands a lot of the trade-offs involved in healthcare and that there are no perfect solutions, but in the sound-bite political culture that we got, it's very hard to communicate that."

"(We) think that it's very important to have some forums," Obama said, to help educate Americans about what the potential trade-offs are concerning healthcare reform.
