I hate doctors and pharmaceutical companies as much as anyone, but those tests are serious business. There's a lot of very hard science and engineering involved in them

When they're cheap outside the USA, it often just means the companies aren't attempting to recoup any r&d costs outside the US

Surely it isn't pharmaceuticals companies doing blood tests in the US? In the UK people's bloods get done in hospital labs (phlebotomy doesn't always occur in hospital though)

Some of that lab work is contracted out of the NHS, but your NHS doctor is largely steered by clinical guidelines rather than profit or ass-covering.

The tests are done using proprietary hard- and software, though it is generally made by biotech and not pharmaceutical companies.
