        @sarahkliff The US patient pays for the majority of innovation in Pharma through higher prices. Surprising to you?

        .@Bobmorevc @sarahkliff Grear point Bob, but if Nexium is on the table, one has to question how much an "innovation" it really represents.

        Payor (CMS) decides what innovation is worth. Patents (Congress) decide substance and duration. So all political. @nimshah123 @sarahkliff

        @sarahkliff there are plenty of other things that cost nominally less in US. Should those be equalized too? Why only a prob for Rx?
