So... When you're in the ambulance dying of a heart attack, you're supposed to be negotiating over your saline drip or on the phone with another ambulance company looking for a better deal?
- krupan 8y agoMaybe if you had picked an example of some medical supply that is used only in emergencies your sentiment would make sense. The price of saline, and nearly all medical supplies, absolutely could be subjected to market pressures in the majority of medical situations, which would drive the price down for everyone, even for heart attack victims.
- nathancahill 8y agoThe price of saline is $1/L (subject to market pressure). It's being billed at $300/L which isn't subject to market pressure.
