Generic Sovaldi can be sourced at $849, but Natco wants 100+ orders at a time.

We've been having to deal with this question for the past few weeks, and finally I will respond.  Natco, the licensed manufacturer of generic Harvoni, Hepcinat LP, would like us to order 100+ bottles at a time.  We're a small clinic and pharmacy, we nor have funding or budget to cover the cost of the meds.  The best we can do is order 3 bottles at a time, yes, the price maybe a bit higher than what is quoted most places online, but we always deliver.  We have to maintain our staff for our clinic and pharmacy.  India is pretty affordable but not that affordable.  Inflation is through the roof, there is a lot of price gouging for basic staple foods like lentils, rice, onions and tomatoes.  Our staff and their family depend on us as well as the volunteers from the states.  So, when we charge a little bit more than the manufactured retail price, this is the reason.  Also, we want to thank Mike Metzger from New York for donating his time and $28,000 towards helping homeless US veterans get affordable HCV medicines.  Thanks again for all your help.
