Here is what you might find: They will make you part of a "study" if you agree to daily Q&A via email. They, in turn, will give a break on the cost.

So yes, some insurance companies will be paying the huge price (or part of it), some people will get a discount by participating.

Just one of my allergy shots is over $ 1,000 a month (Xolair), but I do not pay the first $ 10,000 a year because I agreed to over 6 hours of interviews, emails, etc.

So I might pay around $ 2,000 across 12 months instead of over $ 12K.

Just a thought of what may happen. Still outrageous!!

Take care, Jim

The first thing that needs to be done is figure the cost to develop this drug over the course of nearly a decade, then divide it by 7. That is the cost it must charge just to break even. I would be curious to find out what the actual development cost was.
