“The Invisible Graveyard” – Roadblocks To Drugs That Save Lives

With Bart Madden, Jeffrey M. Senger, Sam Peltzman

Added 5.8.18. Milt in 2010 talked with author Bart Madden about what Madden calls the “invisible graveyard” of patients who “are dying needlessly because they are denied timely access to the most innovative new drugs.” Drawing from his book, “Free To Choose Medicine” Madden argues that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) bears considerable responsibility for the problem. Offering additional perspectives are two other guests. They are Jeffrey M. Senger, a former Acting Chief Counsel at the FDA and partner at the Washington, D.C. office of Sidley and Austin; and emeritus professor of economics at the University of Chicago, Sam Peltzman.
