Isoutside the hospital i incredibly busy. There was a helicopter above us a little while ago. , the healthcare workers say it is indebted, very calm, not seeing the same level of patient they usually do, especially on a friday.

This hospital, bellevue, has been designated as one of the eight by new york officials that has been set up and prepared to handle cases of ebola. Healthcare workers have been doing drills, practicing on vacation practicing on fake patients, did the symposium on personal protective gear. When we asked healthcare workers if you feel prepared and confident the hospital to handle it, they kind of shrugged and gave us an unfair not give us they gave us a not very reassuring answer. We will be watching updates. This is unfolding. It appears as though things are pretty calm right now. Not very reassuring to hear what you just said, shelby. What about the protocols of the hospital . Do they feel they can handle and contain this disease . Sorry, im having trouble hearing with all the traffic. Protocols in the hospital . Do they feel like they have the right to recall right protocols in place . And we say that they do learned last night at the News Conference that this hospital has been prepared and designated as a special hospital to treat ebola. The workers have been preparing.

Nadella has come in and he is resetting expectations and he you are starting to get some payoff. They are growing at a faster clip and they are starting to see results. The stock price is showing it.

Ing to get that payoff the fire phone, it flopped. At some point investors say you are spending on the warehouse but wheres the payoff .

Back to the big story, what the ebola czar needs to do to make a difference and calm the country down. We will talk to one of the few americans that has held a similar title and Crisis Management. And the growing number of viewers who have cut the cable court then turned to streaming video. As we have been reporting, dr. Craig spencer who recently returned to new york from africa has been tested positive for ebola. He is being treated in isolation at Bellevue Hospital. This latest scare. In the review of the newly claim. Ebola czar, ron he was appointed a few days ago by the president to coordinate the national response. Joining us now, one of the few people to also be named czar by policymakers, ken feinberg, who coordinated the response to katrina, aig, the bp oil spill. Great to have you in the studio. You have been in the role of Crisis Management in both the private and the public sectors. When you see an appointment like the ebola czar, what does he have to do . It is all about coordination and administration. I am appointed after the fact to distribute funds or to determine compensation. Appointed, i been think, because of his administrative skill to sort of coordinate the various aspects of response to the ebola epidemic. That is what he has been selected. Much different role than i do. More difficult . I would not say it is more difficult. It is different. He has to anticipate and prepare, well as i, long whereas i come along with a pool of money to distribute to eligible claimants. Although in aig you were still in the thick of things. You do not come too much in the aftermath of what happened with aig. That is correct, but congress aw in my role was limited to 175 individuals to determine whether, patient what the compensation package should be. Ron klain has a regulatory role with his very good expertise to administer and coordinate response to a potential problem. How difficult is this job going to be . It is a challenge because you have various he is trying to coordinate various responses in different countries, in the united states, different Public Health services. If anybody can do it, hes probably the guy who can do it. Do you know him, by the way . No. One of the biggest critiques of this role so far as no one is quite sure of what decisionmaking capability he has in this role. Clear what the he may be able to take or whether this is simply a communications role, trying to tell the public and calm the public down when a case like this breaks out. We shall see. A role like that, which is rather unique has ever been created. It will evolve over time and we will see if there is an efficient, Effective Response as needed to the situation. Be will the money go out the door and a streamlined way so, too, the proof will be that thanks to ron and his administrator skills and it seems that there is quote a nation if everybodys working from the same page. Do you think the president should have picked somebody else . Bloombergne of our columnists, said he would have liked to see general petraeus in Something Like this, someone more familiar with trying to coordinate different bodies and being the decisionmaker. In general, essentially, who is going to start with marching orders. We shall see. I am reading it like you are a hearing it on the public airwaves. It seems to me that one of rons strengths is his ability to coordinate, get things done, streamline processes so that everybody is working from the same page. The proof will be over the next few weeks and months are we seeing a more systematic, Effective Response with in tandem withng the same rules and guidelines. How do you think the government has handled it so far . It is a rather unique situation. I am not an expert in this, but there are isolated examples. What i notice is the constant repetition that it is very unlikely that this is going to grow into something going to become a big epidemic. Have heard what i that i am a private citizen like you on this. Reading the papers and hoping this doesnt spread. I have got to wonder if you have any special advice. Any special advice for someone like ron klain . What do they needed to do when they get into office . , openness, transparency giving the public a sense that it is being managed and handled appropriately. In all of these programs that i have been involved in, all of the words in the interviews. It doesnt matter at the end of the day. The only thing that matters at the end of the day have you achieved the objective, in my case, getting money out the door quickly with a minimum of controversy, minimum of delay, fficient way . In my designated assignments, that is the only thing that. Atters have you achieved the objective of convincing people that the program is being administered fairly, quickly, efficiently . That is the way you measure this. In this case the end goal how we kept the market public, and cap we made the u. S. Cap we kept the margin of calm the American Public calm and kept the u. S. Ebolafree . Are administrating this gm compensation fund. We will be back with ken feinberg and he is here with us to talk about the latest job and what he is getting right now in terms of submissions. Deadit is the walking who.

Equity futures a little speech by this newly diagnosed case of ebola in new york city. Taking down stocks just a bit. We are on the markets again in 30 minutes. Automobiles, General Motors jumped 12 in the third quarter. Yesterday the cfo assured investors that the recall had little impact on business. The Sales Results would indicate that our new products continue to resonate with customers. We continue to our dealers and the efforts we are taking to see improved sales. Seen a Material Impact on sales thus far. All right, but the ignition switch recall case is hardly any gms rear view mirror. Victims have until the end of this year to file claims. Injured. Were they are eligible for compensation by the automaker. 600 millionside dollars for this purpose is to joining us is the administrator of those funds, attorney ken feinberg. Doubleder of deaths has in the claims that were found. Was that surprising to you . No. Gm said there were 13 confirmed deaths from their engineers draw definitive conclusions. But gm always know, and it is reflected in the composition protocol, that a program that ,ooks more to legal standards rather than engineering standards was going to show was going to show an increase. I am certainly not surprised. The program seems to be working well. Light att want to make all of the deaths and injuries. But the numbers seem to be pretty modest. You are right, although every death is one death too many. Of course. And every injury is one too many. But we have received about 5000 claims so far, we are going through them, some are deficient. Some people file and they dont include any information at all about the accident. Almost half the claims are like that. So we go back to the claimant you have got to come up with something to show that the defective switch was the proximate cause of the accident. And we work with claimants to try to do that. Gm has been very cooperative on this. So you dont just throw those out. The people who are trying to get some money and have no basis there may be some who try to game the system but for the most part we try to go back and forth and get additional information. Send us the rest of the accident, sent us the statement and send us the maintenance records. We will work with the claimant and their lawyers to try and see if we can come to a resolution. You have had a few thousand claims come in to be filed over the last few months. You have been accepting claims. Do you expect this will be the same pace throughout through the end of the year . At the very beginning of the program there is a spike in the number of quick claims. Then it sort of tails off. Then in december you have until december 31. Realize there is a deadline tended to file a flood of claims. They realize the deadline is coming up. Thats right. After between thanksgiving and the end of the year, they will be somewhat of a spike as we near the deadline. Do you feel that gm and your own fund is doing a good enough job of telling people making people aware that there is this fund, that it is accepting claims, and that these are the parameters by which you can claim compensation . I think that unless the iant lives on mars mean, there is no way we have not reached out with recall notice information, with personal letters, with communication on television, radio, the media. I dont think it is possible that nobody has known. Claimantmay be a somewhere who does not read or watch television, but we have everything we can to make the informve this program to individual would be claimants. There is this program and if you file we will work with you. Now in in the meantime g. M. Set aside 600 million for the spot. You leave it to gm to decide what they want to set aside. It seems like the pace of the claims were getting is that the right number to set aside . Based on the way this is going, it would appear that what they have reserved is adequate. We shall see. There may be a spike in legitimate claims. We have to process those claims into 2015. So far i would say that the program is working, it has been effective in getting claims processed. As you say, there are already 29 deaths, another 30 or so injuries. It is working. The program is working as gm intended it to work and i think it will prove to be successful. Now you know a lot more about the Auto Industry that you did before, having been a part of this, having taken on this job. We have heard so much more about recalls, the latest being the airbags. Should there be unfortunately one hereld be another for the victims of these airbags, but should there be widespread regulation, nationwide recall coming out based on what we know so far about the airbags . Once you get into the regulatory world, the relationship to these Auto Companies and subcontractors from that is beyond my jurisdiction. What i am asked to do this after a particular tragedy we whether it be 9 11 or bp, know there are claimants that should be compensated. They asked me to help design and administer those programs. That is where my jurisdiction begins and ends. That unfortunately there may be another case we could thanks for coming in. We always appreciate it. Coming up, beyond the bundle.
