Do patients have the option to demand brand name medications?

  1. Yes, always

  2. No, never

  3. Yes, unless paid for by public funds

  4. Only with special permission

The correct answer is: Yes, unless paid for by public funds

Public funds are government-provided resources for the public's use. One of the responsibilities of the government is to allocate these funds effectively and efficiently, which includes managing the cost of medications. Therefore, patients cannot always demand brand name medications as it may not be cost-effective for the government to use public funds for these medications. This does not mean that patients are completely restricted from getting brand name medications, as they can always choose to pay for it themselves. Option A is incorrect because patients do not always have this option. Option B is incorrect because patients do have some control over their medication choices. Option D is incorrect because special permission is not always required.
