It’s basically nothing new, pharmaceutical companies are charging 1000% markup on the cost to produce drugs. I’m sure the story is supposed to be that United health isn’t covering any of that cost, but they sure beat around the bush saying it. A pharmaceutical conglomerate (PBM) is accusing people of Cherry picking data and that the median out of pocket cost for medicines are $5. Considering how cheap most non-life saving drugs are, it’s a bit of a cop out since we’re talking specifically about cancer treatments, not high doses of ibuprofen. Which they’re probably also charging 1000% or greater of wholesale, because it probably costs a few pennies to manufacture those medications.
I’m thinking of upgrading from my Asus e200ha at some point. Want it when I do?
