RW, > I didn't dig into this too much but my understanding is that they were more concerned with the adverse effects of false positives than "rationing". I'm not convinced that the adverse effects of false positives amount to anything more than extra visits to the doctor. No doctor would order chemotherapy, for instance, without making 100% sure that the patient really has a tumor. That's an extreme example, of course, but one that illustrates how the health care industry already deals with false positives. > And somehow linking this to the bill moving through the congress, or the Democrats is ludicrous. Well then why even spend taxpayer dollars to do such a study, if the conclusions should be disregarded? Tenchusatsu
