This case study talks about a governmented financed study that promoted companies products from facilities of healthcare and medical practioners to show off their products. I think there are things wrong with the concept of researchers trying to make a profit out the research work or the offer of lucrative consulting fees. I do not think it is fair for the medical practioners to be bribed to show off a companies product to make money. This is concerning because the doctors should be focused soley on the patients and their priority of their health needs to be taken care of. This can result in force of manipulation of the product results to ensure profit. I think limitations on these kinds of financial arragements are permissible to financial education to spread the awareness of the idea of how companies use doctors or healthcare facilities to promote products disregarding whether it is beneficial to the health of patients or not. Their needs to be an overall limitation between pharmeceutical sales and the physician, and if there is access have them be monitored. Yet I do not feel it was valid to disclose the information of the amount of money physicans and other healthcare providers, including names and dollar amounts. That is the health care providers personal buisness. I think the want to be a doctor should be focused on taking care of peoples lives rather than the income or extra money that could be included. Overall I think it is not fair for physicans to promote products to earn extra money, especially if they do not believe in it for themselves and should be more concerned on the patients health.

1-What is wrong, if anything, with researchers demanding profitable consulting agreements or getting lucrative consulting fees?

2-What limitations would you put on these kinds of financial arrangements? Are any permissible? To what extent?
