    11 times what they should have paid unless you think that “overcharging by 100%” would be charging exactly the right price or if you feel that all medication should be free somewhat cheaper. Or more expensive. Whichever way the math works for that.

      They were charged 11x what they should have paid. they were overcharged 10x, because they would still have been expected to pay the original (1x) charge.

      The 1k% refers to the overcharge, so they are technically correct.
