Policies like those restricting to provide certain payed services to physicians for example is important to understand why they are established and practiced. These policies i believe are set to prevent corruption and biased opinion to the product. As mentioned in the lecture, there could be other better products that could provide a higher quality of life to their patients but because physicians are being payed, it takes away the chances for their patients to experience this quality of life. Ethically, i believe it does not seem right, just as how in engineering ethics, taking money can be considered as bribery. Any services that are usually first approved first by the legal department must be strictly between the customer and the company, i believe it should not be with the physician’s family or friends, that would be a loss as well if the doctor changed his mind.
