“the drug which costs 100,000 U.S. dollars per year in the United States”
If liberals get socialized medicine, your life will be weighed against how much it costs to treat you. If you are over 60, forget it. Obama will give you some Tylenol and send you home to die.
In some instances the sales price of s medication is weighed against the cost of conventional treatment.
An oral medication that might end the necessity for an expensive surgery, might be priced at 75% of the cost of that surgery. I don’t like it, but this rule of thumb has been seen before on other medications.
IMO, there’s no way this med costs $100,000 per a routine year’s regimen. I’d sure have to have it explained to me before I bought in.
Two years after it goes off patent, it will be costing between $1,000 and $2,000 dollars per year.
Would be worth the course of treatment if it came with a 5-year money back guarantee. I don’t think that to be unreasonable.
