Wow, that was an interesting link! I really had no idea that drug companies actually assisted patients of low income w/o insurance coverage, etc.... I must wonder, sardonically, if the rest of us somehow absorb that cost in higher drug prices. Call it welfare or Democratic Party health planning, but somebody has to be paying for it. Still, I guess those of us who can afford an extra few dollars per prescription have some sort of moral obligation to assist those who would otherwise have no access to medicines that would improve the quality of their life. I only hope that those who really NEED such help actually are aware that it exists, because I did not, and I have access to a plethora of information. Maybe the medical community communicates this information to the appropriate patients.
