Abstrakt: The article focuses on the discrepancy between regulatory approval and medical insurance coverage for novel therapeutics, emphasizing that coverage often depends on cost-benefit analyses rather than just safety and efficacy. Topics include the impact of changing drug costs on insurance coverage, how pandemic-related changes in population immunity affect the perceived benefit of treatments over time, and the role of studies in assessing continued effectiveness and coverage appropriateness.
