Youre welcome. Jffa 53 c1 nowni for a signaturee1 segm. The high cost ofni drugs. It might never have occurred to you, but when a brand name manufacturernr introduces a dru they patent it. co generics come on the market when the patents expire or early if they successfullyq challenge th patent in court. Sometimes in order to avoid a court fight, deals are struck between the brand nam manufacturer and the generic company. As part of those deals, the not happen as soon as it might. According to the federal government, those deals end up costing consueeuj billions of dollars afaq year. Megant q thompson reports. W3 it was made bia company that earned 475 million that year. I had eight or nine of them. Better yet, her doctors said she was expected to go generic soon, possibly within a year. That could have saved her more than 1,000 a year. The potential savings were especially important because the disease made it impossible to go back to work as she planned. Arou around. It didnt go through. It was a whole different story. Not only did it not go generic, the price started to rise. Something upheld and in 2010 it had gone up to like 16 something. It was astronomical at the time. Her out of pocket cost for six months went from 300 to more than 700 in 2010. Could you afford that . No. That was a car payment. Plus three young kids and feeding them. I felt guilty i was taking away from the family budget. Her condition was getting worse and she couldnt afford to take a higher dose. She decided to try a less expensive generic version of a different drug. It turned out not to be as effective and it made her shakey and jittery. Her reaction to not getting the drugs . I said how can this with . Its not moral. Its not humane. Its not fair. Why theapt gone generic and why was the price rising so sharply . As she discovered, the Company Manufacturing the drug was using too common but little known Business Strategies that cost consumers. First there is something called pay for delay. Heres how pay for delay works. According to the federal trade commission, when generic manufacturers challenge a patent, the brand name sometimes pays to keep the generic version off the market. In the case of karens drug, the company paid a total of 200 million to the generic company. That guaranteed no generic would come to market for years. The simple thing is its an agreement between a brand name and the generic company. The Brand Company pays not to launch a generic in competition with the brand. An assistant director in the bureau of competition. He said fighting the pay for delay deals is one of the ftcs top priorities. It brought a lawsuit in 2008, alleging anticompetitive comments to prevent lower cost competition. The case has yet to go to trial. A separate Class Action Lawsuit has been filed by health plans and drug . nr wholesalers againse four Generic Companies with unlawful exclusion from the market. Last summer, the Supreme Court issued a major ruling that could open the door for more lawsuits against drug manufacturers involved in similar practices. If you can keep the generic out, the brand can make all the sales at the monopoly price and pay to make it worthwhile for them to stay out of the market. What are is at stake . Billio of dollars. We have done a study in 2010 where we studied it carefully and we estimated that it cost about 3. 5 billion a year. Deals have affected the roll out of generic versions such as tomoxofin for cancer and lipitor for cholesterol and nexium for heartburn. It might not surprise you that the pay for delay deals, the Drug Companies describe differently. The manufacturers say the negotiated settlements they reach with brand names serve consumers well. How . Because they say under the deal, the drugs hit the market before the brand drugs patent expires and only because they challenged them in the first place. You work out compromise. Probably i would say yes. The president and ceo of the generic pharmaceutical association. He said the settlements help avoid the court trials over the challenges and he points to one study showing generic manufacturers succeed less than half the time when they end up in court. We may have no better than a 5050 chance of winning. Maybe less. Maybe we can put something sot table that will be a bridge to a compromise. This has been part of the successful equation. Your opponent said if it werent for the payments being made, these drugs may have come to market sooner. On average, the settlement would get the medicine to the market 60 months in advance of the patent expiration. Sometimes you go all wait and might get ten or eight years, but if you are pretty sure you can get or six or years, instead of taking thatw3 and getting nothing. If they dont have time to market, the months and the years before that expired. Isnt that good for consumer . They examine in earlier and it could in theory be better. You have to compare it to the likelihood that it came earlier. Its true that there was a generic in the market today, but we have that agreement and consumers would have had access all the way back in 2 thousand 6. There would be years and years of savings. Because of what critics describe as those pay for delay deals, they didnt go generic so Karen Winkler and others paid the price. It turns out she paid even more because of the second controversial Business Strategy that they used then and other drug manufacturers continue to use today. Something opponents call evergreening. They want to get off the patent. On to new vigil whose patent had several years to run. They do this by jacking up prices on the first drug. Thats what happened when speak of the rising price, the doctor offered her new vigil. I thought great. Heres a solution. Came home and i started taking it and got a pounding headache. It was like having a migraine. Thats when they figured out what was going on. They knew it was going to be going in shortly. Instead of the ridge is theyll had the team expended, they were not there. Its rare for patients to be switching back. Its a strategy for the brand to hold on to the market even after the generic in the market place. This is one . P ea where the pharmaceutical association and the ftc find common ground. Thas keeping the people who need it and we are against the big issue. The company was acquired by another drugmaker in 2011. In a statement about the first socalled paver delay strategy, they believe that the settlement agreements are lawful and surged to increase competition. They intend to defend them vigorously n. Response to the second strategy of evergreening, they had no comment. When they finally went generic in 2012, the cost for 700 to around 16 for a threemonth supply. She was able to go back on the drug and take the full dose. She said it made all the difference. On generic drug delays. There you can also participate in a poll about drug prices. Now to the arts. A look at an exhibit here in new york that examines the nazis efforts to do away with certain works they considered degenerate. The news hour reports.

They may want to instead of being the wall painting, that was the heroic soldier. Its the same artist and they convinced them of the arts perverse nature. He pointed out that a number of officials including the chief of propaganda was collectors of the banned works. Many labeled them and were faithful germans and were shocked. They show self portraits of the artists with them who painted their reactions to being cast out. One side of his face, there is no high any longer. He blocked his own hand that is a symbol for imnot able to work. My hands are bound. For me these are really hints that he is reflecting his own stats and you he committed suicide a year later. The exhibit explores how the nazis separate out the artwork used as a justification for the German Society of jews. It has two photographs, one showing the line outside and on the other side showing trains full of shoes. Why the connection between these two photographs . Somebody likes it. They were organizing. He came back to the images of the art exhibition. Destroyingk f german culture an buying modern art bite perpetrator. That is the point. By uncovering the cultural and ethnic cleansing, he hopes it can guard against future attacks. You can question yourself in germany and europe, but you have to question across that in china and russia. What is the status of modern art and how is it endanger and when is it limited .
