My own personal opinion on COGX is it is a Niche Company. I am acquainted with a lot of people that do not have Health Insurance
of any kind. Just to go to the Doctor without any Health Insurance can cost $40-$50 just for the visit.If you have X-rays you must not only pay the cost of the X-rays but pay fot the people that read them also and even with some Health Insurance you pay a percentage of those costs etc.

People worry about Health Care and our population is aging.If someone wants to know if they have Osteoporosis and they can pay a small price for a Diagnostic test etc then that is a plus.My understanding of most Diagnostic tests is they are based on Urine samples which can be erroneous while COGX uses blood samples which are more accurate.One can think of many more reasons than the above for a preference for Diagnostic tests at home and one has to decide if they believe in that Niche then they must decide if COGX fills it etc.

Meanwhile it looks like one can buy a 1000 shares for about $400.00 or 500 for about $200.00. All the above is IMHO.
