I listened to a conversation at a seminar held by the Austin Forum. At that time, one of the officials of Dell Medical School, Maninder Kahlon, PhD, was explaining the following example. One of the anticancer drugs is available in vials suitable for everyone, so the entire body of the cancer patient, whether large or small, will receive the same drug. Doctors may adjust the dosage, sometimes using a third or a quarter of these drugs and discarding the rest. This continues to happen every year and the waste is predicted to reach a value of $1 billion per year, but no one does anything about it. The doctors weren't concerned enough about the drugs. Patients never knew if the drugs they had purchased had been discarded. Even if they knew, they wouldn't really care because their bills are paid by an insurance company and the government. The distributor has never received any complaints and continues to receive a large profit. The result of all this is the increase in budgetary expenditure in the healthcare sector. Surprisingly, the government initially viewed it favorably because it administered good health to its citizens. However, the facts say otherwise: according to the data, Americans are not improving their health. This waste of money leads to inefficiency. This is where healthcare reforms need to be renewed. We cannot solve only one side of the problem because it will not satisfy all parties. THE
