But if there are three or four articles questioning the outcomes of a particular procedure, should that make it off-limits? I would never take anything off the table. What I'm proposing is that the taxpayers not pay for it. And that he not be sued for not doing it. Maybe you've got the wrong physician. I can't imagine going in for an annual physical and my physician not checking my lipids or sugar. I didn't say that she wouldn't do it. I came away with an order for the tests. I said that she was looking to me for a justification she could document so that insurance would pay for it. My framework for that comment was that our system is oriented toward disease management rather than wellness/prevention.
