Legal medicare fraud. They bought enough politicians so they can not negotiate the price of the drugs then they raised the prices of even common drugs thousands of dollars and medicare aka taxpayers pay it.
Everyone else including insurance companies and patients can get discounts and pay much less if they play the game.
And yet, in Australia, where we have government health, Humira is either completely covered (with citrates) or can be shipped in directly with no insurance coverage...for $1000 US per month (for Humira with no citrates). In Australia, government health keeps rates DOWN on drugs, because they act as a competitor. Medicare is an excellent thing for drugs at home.
