    Requiring insurance to cover the anti-overdose drug would mostly just guarantee the price was highly inflated due to it being: 1.covered by health plans; 2. the kind of drug it saves peoples lives.
    As an OTC drug it may not be cheap at first but the price will probably fall an order of magnitude lower than it would’ve been if covered by health plans.

For many years, our health care blog was the only free enterprise health policy blog on the internet. Then, when the NCPA closed its doors, the health blog stopped as well.

During this five-year hiatus no one else has come forward to claim the space. So, my colleagues and I have decided to restart the blog in connection with the Goodman Institute. We invite you and others to use this forum to share your views.

John C. Goodman,
