Aren’t you overlooking Obama’s new federal agency that is supposed to judge the efficacy of the standard of care? Isn’t he proposing to create that agency that will judge the effectiveness of certain courses of treatment and then recommend that we jettison, in your example, the pill that works 5% better but cost 10 times more?

Hey, it’s not oceans receding, but it’s a start…
