Price GOUGING Eliquis

Say bump....dip shit. Got a real live uncle, NVAF w other re-entrant ecg abmorm. along with pvd, who ran his own small business. Short story, pays through the nose for our drug most of year. And he has decent coverage. But Eliquis runs him a good penny every month and now more this year. He's semi-retired and doesn't qualify 4 subsidy. Who gives a shit. Gouge 'em.

 

F him and all the patients!

Signed,

Giovanni and friends

Really? You likely work in sales or marketing. No empathetic clue what really goes on with growing HDPs pushed on family, friends, neighbors and communities across U.S. And more expensive PD plans in the face of other financial pressures that you are oblivious too. And warfarin is not promoted dtc or "sales".

Eliquis is good stuff. Xarelto is good stuff too. We have the best data per se.

That's NOT the point of this thread on our own Company board.

Answer me this, with our Bristol-Myers Squibb integrity unshakably infused in your selective brain.

What percent increase has Eliquis 'enjoyed', unabated for the last eight years? Huh?
Conservative estimate, 55%.
55% versus the CPI less discounts/ rebates to settle on actualized net price increase.

Maximized price increases each year.
Maximized price increase as volume grows.
No meaningful increases in production costs.
No meaningful increases in distribution costs.
No justified, value capturing "Giovanni" data from expensive research and further development.

BMY + JNJ = Now investing in major collusive research for the betterment of, you got it, each other.

Try >60%, 6% for the last 4 years. What Eliquis gouging?

 

Got an uncle with an MD,PhD, internationally honored clinician, researcher with NVAF. He 'loves', as in chuckles for you working in HO, all the money we spend in his words, 'less than useful' drug reps, drug managers and the 'plethora of Eliquis ads' that bore the living hell out of anyone with a brain. But as our genius Wharton marketing knows, beat the hell out of those patients we put "first". Such science!

A price increases await mid-year, year 2 of a hundred year pandemic.

Patient compassion at BMS is glowing at an all time high, Giovanni.
