7. Good Lord! What do you imagine insurance companies do here?
Even drugs that have a proven track record of success are not covered by many insurers if the price is over their arbitrary limit. You can get it if you're a millionaire. Otherwise, you're left to suffer. Same in the UK. The ruling class can buy whatever they want, wherever and whenever they want it.

I have every comfort that government decisions on providing experimental drugs would be ever so much more generous than that of insurance companies.
