I found a company called “ResearchAndMarkets.com” that does market research based on a variety of different real-world scenarios so that investors can figure out which companies would give the best return for their money.  In this case, I found a link here to a report about the drug market in relation to psoriasis (treatments for psoriasis) that would cost you about $15,000.00 (depending on how you want that information packaged).

I deduce from this cost that there must be a lot of money in the drug market.  Of course, there is a lot of money floating around in the stock market in general… but the medical industry in particular stands to increase by huge margins for the indefinite future.  This is one of the main reasons why health care costs are supposed to rise steadily.  The general verdict I get from the news is, health care will get less expensive when people don’t get sick any more.

New age drugs such as the biologics designed to treat psoriasis come with a particular hefty price tag.  If you have decent benefits from your employer (or wherever), then your insurance will cover most of this cost… but even a small fraction of tens of thousands of dollars can be expensive for the average person who is struggling just to keep gas in the car.

A solution to this issue might be to find less expensive, more natural means of treating psoriasis.  Otherwise, if there is no other way around these exorbitant costs, then it will come down a battle between insurance companies, drug companies and the regular working class who ultimately pays for everything.
