A friend of mine pays 5 digits in annual medical insurance premiums for a family of four (two fourtysomethigns and two teens). Last year he ran some fingers through a table saw. His coinsurance/copays for the surgeries etc was over $20k. He could pay $20-30k, but it sure messes up the household budget for the next few years.

That blogger with the $7k drug that BCBS wants to split 50/50 with him?
A comment on his original blog post on the subject said:
"Canadian pharmacy. Thirty tablets, 100mg, 299.99. Do your due diligence before ordering. US patent expires in 2014 and generics should be available here when it does."

If the Canadian government will only let them charge $10 a dose, and they willingly sell it in Canada for that price, why do they have to get $230 each when they sell it in USA?
