I see that in our own plan. It's a catastrophic plan but we're allowed "free" mammogram and bone density tests, annual physical + lab work, prostate exam and colonoscopies. No copay, no deductible

No it is not free......

The ACA doesn't go into effect until 2014. Is your agent padding your coverage and overcharging you for it?

The premium and copay for your "free" mamogram, physical and blood work is still there. It's just buried in the overall plan premium which wouldn't be as much but for the "free" stuff.
