There are some examples like Truvada which seem to be very open. Gilead would reimburse any out of pocket costs. Even still it's just a sick game to bilk insurance companies, and thus us insurance premium payers, out of more money while pretending to be looking out for consumers. The monthly cost on my really great insurance was still over $1k out of pocket, which took a bunch of paper work and over a month to get back. Poor people don't have that luxury. Oh and now that Gilead's license has run out they have a new very expensive PrEP drug magically appear. Which they tout doesn't have as bad long term downside on your organs. The skeptic in me seems to think the timing is too perfect. if there is a safer drug throw it out asap. maybe they did, I can't know that but I have a strong distaste for Gilead in particular. For-profit healthcare is one of the biggest moral failings of our country. |
