I get a lipid panel every six months Then you must have metabolic syndrome and/or heart disease. I get a colonoscopy every 2-3 years since my bro died of the disease The operative phrase is "since my bro..." I had at least 3 prostate exams and PSA tests every year.. Indeed. You going to tell me I'm lying???? Nope. I'm going to tell you you're still not reading the material you put forth let alone applying it aptly. If you move one column to the left of "frequency" you find that the 5 years for lipid testing applies to "all asymptomatic Medicare beneficiaries." For colonoscopies it's every two years if you're high risk. PSA exams are allowed annually for everyone. Read the material, think a bit, if you can manage it, and make arguments. You're just quarreling for the sake of quarreling. Because experience and education tells me what a complete set is... So, we have an oracle in our midst. Perhaps you could list for us that complete set. I think that organizing it by category would be most useful but alphabetical would do. Organization by code wouldn't work. I don't recommend that. LOL. ...stop spreading untruths about the Medicare system because you oppose the government plan... Like I posted to Mary, you seem to think it's a slander to state that Medicare doesn't cover everything one might expect to be covered. (My dad expected it to pay for his treatment for prostate cancer, which he didn't get.) But it doesn't. It doesn't cover at least the things I listed. Mary recognized that it doesn't cover everything and you responded to her "You are absolutely right." Yet when I post that I'm "ignorant." She's "absolutely right" because she favored the legislation and I'm "ignorant" because I didn't? The laughs just keep on coming.
