    If they don't have to pay the co=pay, they might pay for the brand name without asking it be changed to a generic. THe co-paYS ARE EVENLARGER NOW SO IT MIGHT NOT EVEN WORK.

    Eileen Wood, a vice president at the Albany insurance company, Capital District Physicians’ Health Plan, found her own solution. Her company started requiring patients to try the generic before using Solodyn.

    THERE OUGHT TO BE A LAW AGAINST HAVING YOUR EMPLOYER DRIVE HEALTH DECISIONS FOR THE EMPLOYEE'S THEY PROMISED TO EMPLOY WITH INSURANCE BENEFITS. HOW DOES A GENERIC STEP THERAPY HELP THE PATIENT?

    The benefit is it saves money for later dwon the line. Most the generics work just as well so why not. Pfizer's false extrapolation of data from clinical trials might not work anymore

    They get to dictate because the company IS PAYING THE BRUNT OF THE COST. The employee always has to option to pay, gasp..out of pocket for the branded item. Gee? Now there's a thought?
