Cost of Sovaldi in India, Burma, Mexico, Pakistan, Egypt: $10 a pill There's a great book called Surviving Schizophrenia that points out that for what schizophrenia patients pay for a year's supply of typical meds, they could book a last-minute, first-class flight to Spain, stay at the Savoy for a week, get a private appointment with a doctor, buy a years' supply of drugs and book a last-minute, first-class flight back to New York and come out ahead. You wanna see reform? Pass a law that says the patient responsibility for any drug will never be greater in the US than the patient responsibility in any other country that company markets to. 'cuz you know what? Kaiser Permanente ain't never paying $990 per pill to Gilead to make up the difference and Kaiser's lawyers are better than yours. I say make 'em fight someone other than patients for once.
