Bless them and you sweetheart. I've been in the position also where I had a needed surgery that my insurance thought was "cosmetic". I was loosing blood to the point that I could have had heart problems, needed blood transfusions and many other horrible things but my insurance company thought this particular fix was not necessary. My doctor knew he wouldn't get paid, would have to have his medical instruments donated and would have to get special permission from a hospital that would allow him to perform this surgery on their insurance. All things that scared me half to death and I nearly backed out...The surgeon assured me that he could take care of me. 2 days after the surgery, I felt like a brand new person. Actually, I'm 45 but feel 18. I only had to pay $200 for my portion, surgeon incurred the rest. Still my doctor today😊

Kate just stop with your nonsense. They treat inmates for diseases like cancer which are not contagious and they use our tax dollars to pay for it. Meanwhile the law abiding citizens are screwed because they can't afford it. That's the point. Use your brain to think outside the box instead of randomly insulting people.

I was cured of Hep C by this exact drug, provided by a pilot program in Vancouver where I live. I had to wait a year until my liver started to show signs of damage, which was weird and scary, but Vancouver requires much less damage to qualify than Louisiana does, at least to my understanding. Total miracle drug. Little to no side effects. I was totally cured in just a few months. My health improved significantly. I'm so grateful to Canada's single payer public health care system. I would never have been able to afford to get my Hep C cured otherwise. For the all the problems with Canada's system, it clearly is superior to America's system. I would even be okay with totally privatized health care, no single payer, no public option, IF insurance companies were regulated in a way which encouraged competition, and IF pharmaceutical companies were regulated in ways that would prevent them from charging 91K$USD for a 12 week course of this Hep C drug. I am somewhat sympathetic to the fact that drugs take a lot of money and R&D time to create. Innovation could potentially be slowed if pharmaceutical companies were regulated and had price caps set on their products. But that argument is similar to the argument against rent control. In both cases of pharma and rent, I think that companies would still innovate new drugs and built new development even if their ability to charge exorbitant prices and make exorbitant profits were capped. Companies will still exist to service these markets if there is good profit to be made there - there is no logical argument for allowing gross, insane profit margins at the expense of society when those companies would provide the same services under conditions where gross exploitation was outlawed, but where a reasonable profit motive still existed.

Government created the too policies that make them so high you know that right? This video is very vague about that. They have to go through clinical trials and failures to ensure government approval and that's partly why they cost so much because that testing and failing adds to the cost of developing the drug. While they definitely mark up the price beyond a reasonable price themselves, the generic price sometimes tells you how much they make it up by. 24k to 95k is substantial but even 24k is a lot of money being a generic, so the cure obviously cost a lot.

Just got people to Egypt and get the treatment for $500 OR India for $1-2k. Some max $5k per person.

The drug companies don't want the medicaid and prison population treated, because if there's a lot of Hep C in the general population, their drug will continue to be a high earner in the future.

So you need to be almost dying or close to dying just to take the medicine. Because it's just so expensive.

So martin shkreli wasn't the only one jacking up prices!! Not suprising that company should be ashamed

in Egypt the treatment is pretty cheap. i know some people tried it and got cured

We need to make it a federal law that say pharmaceutical companies can not charge people life saving drugs and drugs that cure diseases.

Here is a depressing pharmaceutical patent story you guys in the US like to forget: 1- In October 2001, when there was the anthrax scare in the US right after 9/11, the US government pressured German pharmaceutical company Bayer to renounce to their patent and allow any US pharmaceutical company to produce as many doses of their anti-anthrax treatment Cipro as they wanted because it was an "emergency". At that point in time 9 people had been exposed to anthrax in the US. 2- At the very same time 40 US pharmaceutical companies were suing the south African government into submission with the assistance of the US Department of State because South Africa was trying to import ARV treatments for Aids from asian countries without paying the US companies for the patents. More than 7 million people lived with Aids in South Africa, but apparently from a US perspective that was NOT an "emergency". US imperialism in a nutshell.

While I agree meds should be affordable, a lot of meds wouldn’t exist without the incentive to make loads of money. I’m sure some scientists would rather give it away for free (or a reasonable price), but drugs take almost a decade or more to make it to market. They have to recoup the money they put in to making the drug(s). Plus, once the patents expire, the generic will be affordable

But at least here in America the prevailing ideology is that individual responsibility trumps group responsibility. Littering would be a good example you could apply this principle to. So if you actually try to get something done you have to observe the culture. One way they could possibly fix the pressure from shareholders and stakeholders to squeeze as much money out of people as possible is to register as a B Corp. This business classification lends protection against retaliation by shareholders if the decision produces a positive externality or benefit the public over monetary gain.
