The "shipping & handling" charge accounts for the price the payor pays. Nurses who administer the drug have to get paid; pharmD's who check the chart to insure no adverse interactions with patient's other meds have to get paid, etc. It only costs $0.03 to manufacture a CD, but one with music on it costs $16 on average. The cost isn't simply one of materials required. -- Toucan Be heard. Spread the word. http://www.YouSaidit.org An experiment in hypermedia Democracy
