The costs of many oral oncology drugs have become an issue since the patient still have large out-of-pocket expenses to cover. Many of the oncology patients are covered by Medicare but the 2003 Medicare Legislation did little to help patients pay for oncology medications (Georgetown University, 2014). The expansion of 340B discounts, where oncology drug makers provided outpatient drugs at deep discounts to facilities that met their criteria, also faced lots of criticism since the facilities where to pass on the discounts to the patients but did not (Wang, Tao & Hamilton, n.d.).

I have witnessed that hospitals treat anyone that show up in the emergency department whether the patient is insured, underinsured or uninsured. In saying this, it is always my question that to what extent hospitals provide services for those who do not have health insurance and/or for those who cannot afford to pay for the care provided. A journal article published by Lancet in 2002 explains "when uninsured admitted to hospital, they do not get the same level of care as that provided to the insured" (Lancent, 2002). It is unambiguous that an individual would get an emergency medical treatment but he/she is required to pay back for the service provided. For this reason, I believe healthcare in United States is more of a privilege than it is a right, and It should be a human right to have access to health care.

Davis as he will be responsible for the entire premium cost for his coverage. When people are unable to afford private healthcare insurance and have chronic health issues, the burden of the cost of the care for those individuals falls on the healthcare facility, the state and federal governments. If a facility receives reimbursement from state Medicaid or from Medicare, that facility cannot refuse to provide healthcare services to a patient with an emergent health condition. Patients who do not have health insurance will often avoid seeing a primary care provider until their care condition has become serious enough to require emergency care. When patients only seek healthcare from an emergency provider their care is more expensive and may be disjointed because emergency providers do not have access to a patient’s complete medical chart.
Although the Socratic seminar and the novel left many questions unanswered for me, it made me understand more why things are they way they are in the healthcare and scientific research industries. It made me look more closely at the specific details health care professional do in their line of work. In society, money is the key to getting things to happen.

Since this topic is illegal physicians and patients do not speak of it. It becomes a topic that is hidden under a rock. Physicians know they can help the dying and the dying know that the physicians can help them, but because of legal issues no one dares to speak of the aid in dying.

Patients and doctors should have the right to speak about the topic of physician aid in dying.
