Former Gov. Jeb Bush (R-Fla.) plans to release his proposal for an ObamaCare alternative within the next three weeks, he said Monday in a Fox Business interview.

"We have to lower the cost of health care to lower the cost of health care insurance. And the ObamaCare approach is actually creating higher costs for the whole system, and it's suppressing wages," the presidential candidate said. "We want to create more income for more people, then we have to have a dramatic change, and I believe repealing ObamaCare, beyond that, we need to come up with an alternative that embraces conservative values."
