Happens often. MD writes for a drug that is not approved for the hospital formulary. MD notified by pharmacy that drug is not on formulary. MD selects another drug that is on formulary. Sometimes MD gets pissed. Most know the policy. In this case the judge is asking the hospital to ignore accepted policy. Let MD transfer patient to a hospital that will let him be the boss.

That is entirely different. If the drug is unavailable, it's unavailable.

Formularies have accepted and therapeutically equivalent alternatives. There is no alt for Ivermectin.
