I think this is good. For many people a lot of the costs are the doctor visits. Look at the Walmart 100 common generics for $4. I wouldn't be surprised if 50% of the hospital visits can be solved by one of these generics but then we add an expensive doctor visit to get a $4 medicine. There needs to be a more affordable solution.

Its really not surprising that the expensive part isn't the drug but the expertise to select the correct drug; it's true in lots of fields that the equipment or consumables aren't nearly as expensive as the brain to choose which of those to use and how. Bits are a lot less expensive than the software engineers that arrange them.
