Barack Obama will this week propose cuts in health care provision for the elderly and the poor as he seeks to reach agreement with Republicans on bringing America's record levels of debt under control.
Aides said that in a major speech on Wednesday the US president will lay out plans that will include reform of Medicare and Medicaid, the major subsidised health care schemes that are among the main causes of the country's $14.25 trillion (£8.7 trillion) national debt.
"The president will be laying out his approach to long-term deficit reduction," said David Plouffe, a senior adviser at the White House, adding that the president would call on both sides to compromise.
"If we are going to make progress the parties are going to have to come together to find common ground," he said.
Mr Obama was last week forced into accepting $38.5 billion (£23.5 billion) in cuts demanded by Republicans for other types of spending in order to secure a last minute deal to keep the government running for the rest of the financial year.

“Mr Obama’s ideas will... likely to call for the restoration of tax rises for the rich and further cuts in defence expenditure.”
Now, there’s a surprise. (/sarc)
How about we start by cutting off services for illegals.
Can’t do that. They’ll be voting in 2012.
Sounds like debt reduction through death induction.
Running to the front of the parade only to fall down.
Not likely to happen, especially when he's got LaRaza right there in the WH with him. Instead America's elderly will be set out to pasture and zero's new "voters" will be thrown a bone.
Obama embraces 'Death Panel' concept in Medicare rule
Incoming House Speaker John Boehner said during the healthcare debate: “This provision may start us down a treacherous path toward government-encouraged euthanasia.”
Barack Obama wants to KILL OLD PEOPLE!
To which his constituents reply: "What's wrong with that?"
We are sacrificing our elderly for younger illegal aliens; they will be covered under ObamaCare, which will be funded in part by cuts to MediCare.
He wants to cut medicare so the Republicans would look like the bad guys
instead of a zillion other programs.
He’s trying to kill grandma and the poor!
