Sorry... I think all those “preventive” tests are not only costly but not necessary. You might catch 1 in a hundred cases and even some of those are false positives. It causes undue hardship and certainly expands costs unnecessarily.

I have to say that almost ALL preventive tests are useless with what - maybe a 1-2% catch rate (and even those are often wrong). Really, you want to do all of these tests to catch 1 out of a hundred cases of actual disease? This is what Obama care wants - great for the Doctors and Hospitals money wise...
