Brandon I thank you for this knowledge. I don't know how long it takes for someone who is in need of a drug to be approved as poverty ridden in order to receive required medication. I imagine in many cases the physician tries to aid with samples. They too are stuck as they can't possibly act as supplemental coverage providers for all patients. Their space is not adequate maintain a have a non ending supply of numerous drugs.

Be the law on the books the issue is not that one should be forced into poverty there of you can now receive help. The issue is poverty is prevented, there of, the depletion of one's life time savings is averted in an era of inflation.

anyone who needs a medication need only write to the company that makes the drug

This is a program I've heard of also...

It just boggles my mind that people believe that a doctor could be so crass as to prescribe drugs to a patient, and then leave that patient in a situation where she could not obtain them due to cost...

Now how do I turn this post into something that is "on-topic".....??? I know......

Centralized medicine is merely one sign of an economic system that has created inefficiencies, or failed to develop regulatory policy that would proclude government nationalization of the sector....

And Europe is one clear example of this... where creating a sense of expectations as to just what govt is responsible for providing to its citizens, eventually comes around and bites them in the buttocks... Namely, a weaker economy, a weak central bank, an aging population with a declining based of working tax-payers, and relatively limited productivity gains... All of these elements eventually lead to a record low for the Euro, and tri-Central Bank intervention that will merely slow the decline.....

And it's all the fault of centralized medicine... dagnabbit...

How's that for a turn-around back to topic??... :0)
