That that is all really, cancer treatment costs are totally out of control, the drugs are way to high, one shot that goes along with Chemo. runs into 7 to 12,000.00 per shot...and you get one every treatment...The so called affordable care act does nothing to address actual health care costs all it does is guarantee insurance companies will have a captive clientele..the actual health care costs are still climbing, co-pays are still climbing and the insurance companies are raising their prices ..
