Key problem is that the average consumer is with their health insurance provider for about 3 years. This means that when you have drugs that provide significant health and cost benefits in the long term, the patient's current insurer pays the cost but another company receives most of the benefits.

It would help tremendously if the US changed the rules and made it so most people got insurance directly and not through their employer.
