October 4, 2004 A few insurers, including Kaiser Permanente, Group Health, Premera Blue Cross in Washington and the Veterans Administration restricted access to Vioxx much to the irritation of doctors and patients wanting the media popular drug long before safety concerns had ever arisen. According to the chairman of the pharmacy and therapeutics committee at Group Health, a non-profit HMO in Washington, safety concerns about Vioxx came from the start based on unpublished data on the FDA Web site. Without “real benefits,” the group did not wish to spend “member premium dollars on these new medicines.”For more information on the Vioxx recall, please contact us and learn your legal rights and options. |
