Trump said that everyone will be taken care of and it will be paid for by the government but he was only referring to people who could not afford insurance.
I can understand the confusion because of the way Pelley interrupted him constantly.
He said he would “make a deal” with existing hospitals” to take care of them and the government would pay.
However, the last statement says that “for the most part”, meaning the majority, people would be able to negotiate plans.
He has said many times that he wants people to be able to buy insurance across state lines to encourage completion and he said in his book that he supports serious tort reform.

Donald Trump: They’re going to be taken care of. I would make a deal with existing hospitals to take care of people. And, you know what, if this is probably—
Scott Pelley: Make a deal? Who pays for it?
Donald Trump: —the government’s gonna pay for it. But we’re going to save so much money on the other side. But for the most it’s going to be a private plan and people are going to be able to go out and negotiate great plans with lots of different competition with lots of competitors with great companies and they can have their doctors, they can have plans, they can have everything.
