BIG PHARMACY
SEEKS AN IMAGE CURE
U.S.
Drug Companies are trying to repair their reputations. So far, the
results have been mixed at best. While U.S. pharma executives aren't rushing to cut
drug prices or take big salary reductions, they're trying a number
of other tactics to woo a hostile public. For one, companies are
starting to tone down the hard sell in consumer advertising that
many people find offensive. Plus, the pharmaceuticals are
expanding programs that subsidize drugs for the poor and
uninsured.
MEDICARE 'PLAN D' NEEDS TO BE
REMEDIED

that if a referee has to explain a call he's made, then it's a bad
call. What,
then, are we all to make of the 98-page booklet that offers
explanations and instructions for the new Medicare 'Plan D'? Plan
D could be labeled the "drug industry policy" because it is very
much driven by the drug industry's power and lobbying efforts.

‘LOSING BUSINESS TO
CANADA’

the U.S. also sell them in other countries around the world,
including Canada. The
U.S. is the only
industrialized country with no regulations limiting drug prices,
so the same pills are much more expensive here. As a result, by
the summer of 2004, at least 1 million people living in the
U.S. were
filling their prescriptions in neighboring
Canada, at a
considerable saving.

...
those who don't take many prescriptions may wind up paying more in
premiums than they would spend if they paid for all of their
medicine out-of-pocket. "Choosing a plan
