  Understood, I was actually wondering where they fit in your analysis. It seems they are locked out of direct participation in a transaction that is ultimately harmful to them, with no regulatory protections for /them/.

    The suffering patient is not the customer. The customer is the health insurance. This is why most of the health systems have issues now, because the patient is not the customer, the patient is only a vehicle to extract money out of the health insurance.

      The person consuming the medicine is not the consumer? I catch your point, and maybe you’re right if the insurance company is paying 100%, but if there is a co-pay of any sort the sick cancer patient is also the consumer.
