ⓘ How to read this

The reference price is a bulk government tender rate - not what a private hospital pays. The gap to the ceiling covers distribution, retail margin and smaller order volumes; it is not profit. It shows the distance between institutional and retail pricing. The ceiling is the maximum a pharmacy may legally charge; a bill above it is worth asking about.
