I really could not give you a figure in terms of sales percentages, because I'm not familiar with each pharmacy's sales figures. Also, since we do not have an agreement, I do not know the percentage of medications covered by CIC. However, substantial sums of money are involved. You understand that the money is advanced by individuals, by pharmacists. The worst case we saw was that of a pharmacist who had to advance thousands of dollars and who had been fighting with CIC for three years.
Let me give you some examples of products delivered to patients and what they cost. For instance, the monthly cost of triple therapy to treat HIV-AIDS is $1,500. This is each and every month and if the pharmacist is not reimbursed for the cost of treating a few patients, it doesn't take long for the cost to add up, after two, three or fourth months, to several thousand dollars.
It is the same for serious pulmonary infections treated with vancomycin. One seven-day course of treatment costs $500. The costs also add up quickly in this case. These are costs that that individuals, the owner pharmacists, must cover up front. It's not large corporations, but rather individuals, who are paying up front.
