The average american struggles to get by and struggles to buy health insurance. You sell ibuprofen and naproxen for $20,000 per year! This is a fraud and nothing more than stealing from everyone who buys health insurance. You can say you are only in it for the money or give whatever justification you want, but at the end of the day how can you not feel bad about what you do? Everyone knows exactly what you do for a living. How do you not feel deeply embarrassed?
1. As a patient you have the right not to fill your script 2. If V/D/P was pulled tomorrow, the average American will still struggle and your premiums will still go up. 3. The WAC price of V/D/P is not always what the insurance pays 4. The patient can buy the pill in its individual form - and the average patient will not take thier ppi 5. Ulcer care by a hospital can cost 19,000 - which consists of stents, ct, blood work, endoscopy, etc 6. Why don't u complain when a hospital charges a patient $56 for a band aid or when a Physician clips someone's nails and charges $250? Get off the band wagon and complain about other things that will actually make a difference if there was a change!
Horizon marketing department flunkie posting here I see. Sad thing is I think many of their employees believe this twisted logic, or believe it as long as the paychecks keep coming in.
There is NOTHING you can say that will justify paying nearly $20k for a drug I can buy OTC for $20. That's twenty dollars!!
Sure there is it's called $10 copay which is less than your $20 OTC. Pretty simple math but my guess is that you don't and won't get a script for any of the products because you are a healthy young adult that was fired for low performance and are just on here as some sort of hidden spiteful attack and don't need any OA RA meds
The title of this thread continues to be appropriate. It is shameful what you Horizon people do and call it "medicine".
If you put half as much effort into finding a job as you do spending time on this site you would be better off
The $10 copay is a huge part of the fraud. You are changing the usual way that a drug would be priced for a patient to make it seem cheap then charging them a huge amount behind their back. Do you tell the doctors you call on that a month of V/D costs $1800? Do you let the patients know that they are getting a drug that costs $20,000 per year? be honest...
Depends. If they're pocketing several grand a year in speaker's fees and the like, they'll prescribe horse shit for their patients. Go the Open Payments website and see the docs who are cashing in on these fees from Horizon. Gee, I wonder if there's any correlation between their prescribing habits and the highly critical payments they're receiving to teach their fellow physicians about such wonder drugs as naproxen, ibuprofen, diclofenac and prednisone.
