Wow. Thanks. It’s a ridiculous cost for marginal gain. The critical-care bubble grows bigger. Lobbyists and a loose fda behind this one likely. And to think it’s hard for insurance to allow for single maintenance and inhaler therapy because it can’t get around the early refill to renew your drug. Or rather that some forgo inhalers due to cost. Like that kid in Wisconsin whose Advair bumped up arbitrarily to $500/month and he died a couple days later after not refilling. But hey..if they caught him early just enough to get to get on the vent he would have got a $23000 boost to the hospital for using Lungspacer!
