PRICEEarlier this year I wrote about a government proposal to institute’ controls on the amount that the federal government would pay for drugs prescribed to patients onmedicare and medicaid. The plan, simply put, was that ° the government would reimburse druggists no more than the cheapest form of the drug would cost. As taxpayers, we are always pleased when federal expenditures are reduced, but this particular attempt at saving is bad. it’s bad because the cheapest form of any drug runs a good chance of not having the same good therapeautic effect on the patient. If it doesn’t dissolve — and some of them won’t — the patient may receive no beneficial effect at all! The plan, referred to as the Maximum Allowable Cost regulation, was temporarily delayed for several months while it’s virtues and loopholes were debated, but asa final monument to his term as Secretary of. Health, Education, and Welfare, Casper Weinberger began implementation of the plan.
