All:
     Now that Health Care reform is dead, I would like to attempt
to reform one of the most egregious medical rip-offs: I.E. the
outrageous average 1000% markup hospitals charge on medicines
provided to inpatients. I wanted to start a class-action, but
my hospital caved, and wouldn't sue me for the part of the bill I
refused to pay. I think I've found some good class-action lawyers
who would take the case, but now I can't be the plaintiff.
     So, is there anyone out there who has been hospitalized
within the last 4 years who had an appreciable Pharmacy charge on
his bill, who has been sued for non-payment? You can send private
email if you like, to hsfrey@lafn.org.
     No, there is nothing in it for me, though I might be a witness
as to the wholesale price of drugs to the hospital.
     If someone is upset by this crusade of mine, feel free to flame.

Harvey
