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.

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.
