Are they also going to go after the company that is actually offering and giving kickbacks to doctors as well? Or are businesses going to continue to do whatever they want knowing that the consequences get handed off to individuals without affecting their bottom line?
Im cynical and depressed so Im going to assume the latter
Already, the federal authorities in Boston have brought charges against Insys’s founder and former chief executive, John Kapoor, as well as against several other top executives and sales managers. They have all pleaded not guilty.
The
New York indictment offers further evidence that investigators have
broadened their inquiry into doctors who were prescribing the drug to
patients. Earlier this month, another top prescriber, Jerrold Rosenberg of Rhode Island, was sentenced to more than four years in prison after admitting he took kickbacks from Insys.
The company did not respond to a request for comment on Friday.
The
indictment unsealed on Friday charged that the drug firm had used its
speakers program "to induce a select group of practitioners,” including
the five doctors charged in New York, to prescribe large volumes of the
fentanyl spray. The selected doctors were often referred to within the
company as “top docs,” the indictment said.
So yes, they've been charged as well.
I really hope the medical system will become nationalized in my life time. This shit is sickening, and is what happens when you place profits over care.
As if we didn't have enough of an opioid crisis as it is.
Shit like this is the reason we have an opium crisis in the first place.
Just letting you know this is one of the single most awkward things to read because of the censoring, please don't do this again, good lord is it terrible.
Yeah I don't like it either, but the quote doesn't look good either.

I guess Black Mesa just wasn't paying enough
SMURFY!
Maybe people should just stop being baby bitches about pain and tough it out? I personally don't take painkillers stronger than acetaminophen by choice as I have a really weird probably genetic resistance to opioid pain killers so if I want pain relief I'm stuck having to either abuse the dosage to fuck or take stronger, more addicting stuff. Every post-surgery/severely painful moment of my life I've just poped a few acetaminophen and dealt with it because it's not worth the potential harm it could cause to my body or way of life to take those meds.
