In 2004, the average wholesale price of available MS disease-modifying therapies was $16,000. In 2013, the average price was $61,000; last year, the average price was more than $83,000. That's why my guest this week is David Mitchell, founder and president of Patients for Affordable Drugs. We're also talking about the RealTalk MS Podcast Alexa Skill!
