Buttigieg, 37, the mayor of South Bend, Indiana, is one of several Democratic candidates vying to be the presidential nominee who are making big efforts in rural America that swung heavily to Republican President Donald Trump when he won the White House in 2016. This is a more moderate approach to healthcare coverage than some of his Democratic rivals, including progressive standard bearers and U.S. Senators Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts and Bernie Sanders of Vermont, who want to transfer all Americans to government-funded health coverage, known as Medicare for All.
Buttigieg said he would also strengthen the Indian Health Service, a federal government department charged with providing medical and public health services to Native American tribes and Alaska Native people.
