Steve Case: Trump's win was 'wake-up call' for health care investors

Steve Case made his fortune by founding AOL. A decade ago, he took a shot at fixing health care's problems with Revolution Health, a massively hyped startup. Now he's looking at health care as an investor and believes the 2016 election showed why those investments should be distributed around the country — and not just in Silicon Valley and the East Coast. Case joined PULSE CHECK to discuss how a billionaire businessman looks at health care and politics (1:55), how he thinks venture capitalists should approach the space (8:00), why he poured $100 million-plus dollars into a health care startup (13:00), his take on Donald Trump's election and the implications (25:30), how an AOL founder sees the rise of fake news (34:00), and more.
