Quality and price

The price label on any product or service should be for a product or service free of defects. If there are defects the label should say as much, otherwise the supplier may well be in breach of national laws and statutes. Price is therefore not a feature or characteristic of the product but is a feature of the service associated with it. Price is negotiable for the same quality of product. Some may argue that quality is expensive but in reality, the saving you make on buying low-priced goods could well be eroded by inferior service or differences in the cost of ownership.

From the consumer s perspective, cost is an important characteristic of the food and the best buy is the product that is considered to have the best ratio of quality and price. So consumers should welcome any measure that will improve quality at no extra cost or reduce the cost at no reduction in quality. In principle, using a CCP-based system at the level of a supply chain is supposed to do just that, since it will ensure that the controls are taking place at the steps where they can be implemented most effectively, thus eliminating superfluous double or triple testing of the same thing, or unnecessary waste when food is discarded because its safety is uncertain.

When a patient s health insurance plan covers prescription drugs, the balance between perceived quality and price tips in favor of quality. While it protects consumers from uncontrollable and catastrophic expenses, health insurance also reduces the effective price of health care services and products. By reducing patients out-of-pocket cost, health insurance makes them less sensitive to price than they would otherwise be (516). 

The importance of price versus perceived quality depends on many factors, including the severity of the disease or condition for which the drug is intended, the availability of close substitutes, and the effectiveness of advertising and promotion in convincing doctors (and sometimes patients) that the drug is the right choice for the patient (86), Most important in tipping the balance between perceived quality and price, however, is health insurance. When a medical service or product is covered under a patient s health insurance plan, the patient pays less and is less sensitive to price (5 16).
