Larry,

This is a major concern of mine. As I posted some time in the past, why will people go to a drug store or elsewhere to get this test, pay out of their own pocket when they can go get the same or better test done at the doctor's office AND covered by insurance. Routine trips to the doctor for physicals, routine bloodwork, etc. can accomplish the same at a lower cost to the patient. Unfortunately, I just don't see this as a major revenue producer. I do hope I'm wrong as I still own CMTR.
