Jim Dunsdon, OCP's registrar, disagrees. For all the junk that happened to me there's tons of guys out there doing it. Still, rebates, which were characterized on W Five as unethical, remain a legal and common method of doing business. Furthermore, all of my rebates were passed on to customers in the form of lower prescription prices. Elie Betito, director of public and government affairs with Apotex, concurs.
Rebates are a normal and legal part of doing business in a competitive environment.
