When I used to do EMS flying, it was that way too. Once public authority
such
as police, fire, ambulance, emt, hospital called us for a flight, we had
to go.
There was no finding out first if there would be payment guaranteed.
That was
an issue to be worked out after the flight.

I agree that emmergency treatment is always available, but what about
long term follow-up treatment? If you can't pay for the 50K operation, (non
emmergency), what happens then? What about the high drug costs in the U.S.,
the highest in the world. Your probably going to say that the drug
companies need the money for research. In many cases this research is
funded by governments but the drug companies make the profits. Several U.S.
states are shopping in Canada now for drugs at the peral of creating
shortages in Canada. Anyway, what the hell has this topic got to do with
the rec.aviation.military newsgroup?????????

Generic drugs are generally cheaper in the US than in Canada. Canadian
generics often run three times what they do in the US.

If that is the case, what the hell are some U.S. State governments doing
their shopping in Canada for? Don't they generally shop for the cheapest
price? Anyway, this is my last comment on this topic as it has NOTHING to
do with a rec.aviation. military newsgroup!

The State Governemnts are taking advantage of Canadian prices for name brand
first run drugs.

Don't they generally shop for the cheapest
price? Anyway, this is my last comment on this topic as it has NOTHING to

Only as it pertains to guns, or butter, and beurocratic lagess.
