Are Doctors Complicit with Pharma? A Deep Dive into Prescription Drug Costs

The relationship between and the raises important questions about the high cost of in the United States.

🔹 Doctors as Gatekeepers: Doctors play a crucial role in prescribing medications, influenced by their professional judgment. However, with pharmaceutical companies spending $6 billion annually on advertising (equivalent to the FDA's budget), patients often request specific brand-name drugs, swayed by these ads.

🔹 Ethical Concerns: Some doctors might be complicit with pharma companies, prescribing expensive drugs possibly due to incentives. This raises ethical questions about whether prescriptions are influenced by financial ties rather than patient needs.

🔹 International Price Discrepancies: Americans pay significantly higher prices for the same medications compared to other countries. Pharma companies argue that U.S. patients benefit from quicker access to new drugs, with 85% of globally approved medicines available in the U.S. versus 40% in Europe.

🔹 Market Dynamics: The U.S. remains the largest market with the highest drug prices due to its favorable regulatory environment and large consumer base. Even with new policies like the , high prices are expected to persist.

: Major Drugmakers Cap Asthma Inhaler Costs at $35 Per Month Amid Federal Pressure

Exciting developments for asthma and COPD patients! Starting June 1, 2024, AstraZeneca, Boehringer Ingelheim, and GlaxoSmithKline will cap the monthly cost of their asthma inhalers at $35. This initiative, driven by significant governmental advocacy, aims to alleviate the financial strain on patients managing and .

This price cap is a game-changer, providing crucial financial relief, especially for those with commercial insurance. Uninsured patients will also benefit, with AstraZeneca offering the cap through savings programs and Boehringer Ingelheim providing copay cards for eligible patients.

Addressing the high costs of asthma medications is vital, as many patients have been forced to skip or delay treatment due to financial constraints. These costs have disproportionately impacted low-income and minority communities, leading to higher hospitalization and mortality rates.

While this is a significant step forward, some experts remain cautiously optimistic, emphasizing the need for effective implementation and comprehensive coverage for all necessary medications.

Additionally, patients can further ease their financial burden by joining CedoHealth's membership program. For just $20 a month, billed annually, members gain access to essential prescription medications, including generic ProAir (retail price $85.00) and other asthma drugs, at no extra cost. This program ensures that patients receive necessary treatments without worrying about high out-of-pocket expenses, promoting better health outcomes and peace of mind.

CedoHealth leaves no one behind. Our services are available to individuals, families, and companies.

Donna and Bob are farmers that have struggled to keep up with the expenses of their daily medications for years, despite having 3 insurance plans ‘covering’ them.

Hear what they have to say about switching to CedoHealth:

“Farmers have pretty tight budgets these days. Since we already have private insurance from United Healthcare, VA coverage, because Bob is a Vietnam Vet, and Medicare we didn’t think we could save any money. By switching our medications to CedoHealth, we are now saving $3,036 a year just by eliminating all of the copays and deductibles. What a huge difference this has made for us! Plus, the medicine comes right to our home, we don’t have to drive anywhere to pick it up.”
