A new study has found a direct association between rising drug costs and decreases in more expensive hospital care and physician services. Produced by Mark Farrah Associates, a data aggregator and publisher providing health plan market data, the report was published in the America’s Health Insurance Plans’s HI-WIRE Connection.
