Question 2

Restricted Formulary Hospitals are big purchasers of pharmaceutical products and have to stock many different chemical entities. However, they increasingly do not stock all. Instead, they restrict their formularies to many of the treatments in a therapeutic class but consciously exclude a few. How does this help them negotiate?

Answer to Question 2

If they were to carry every drug in existence, every drug producer would know that their disagreement value was high. But because there is a chance that a specific drug will not be included in the formulary, every drug producer now faces a disagreement value of 0 . This improves the bargaining position of the hospital.

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.
