I got an email from Medicare today identifying all the screenings for which I would be "eligible" over the next year. The only thing on the list is the mammogram I already have scheduled.

That short list illustrated so clearly how little screening Medicare authorizes. You'd think that a woman old enough to be under Medicare would be authorized more annual screening than that, at least some basic blood work. Which demonstrates, I think, that any cut-back in forty-something mammograms that might ensue would not be any different from what already goes on. Business as usual.
