Conversely, if you ban actually charging for last-attempt experimental research services, then those desperate people will only be left to seek:

1- Honest researchers who can't charge too much. 2- Unscrupulous quacks who will take all your money regardless of law.

With the second option being much more common due to incentives. If however you allow research facilities to take donations/payments to fund research related to a specific disease, then you will increase the incentive for legitimate companies, even if the odds are still low or close to 0.
