I take Xolair, which is billed at about $5k for four syringes. Insurance pays $4875 and the Xolair copay program, run by the manufacturer, pays $125. Why are they so willing to pick up the copay? Before four syringes of Xolair cost about $60 in total to produce.
I think the issue with this particular tool is it can authoritatively provide incorrect, entirely fabricated information or a gross misinterpretation of factual information.
In any field I’ve worked in, I’ve often had to refer to reference material as I simply can’t remember everything. I have to use my experience and critical thinking skills to determine if I’m utilizing the correct material. I have not had to further determine if my reference material has simply made up a convincing, “correct sounding” answer. Yes, there are errors and corrections to material over time, but never has the entire reference been suspect, yet it continued to be used.
