WOMEN NEED TO TALK TO THEIR DOCTOR – NPR Article Underscores Important Patient Needs

     FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE, CAMBRIDGE, MA, July 30, 9:00 AM: According to a recent article published on NPR.ORG, WHAT WOMEN NEED IN A CHECKUP (http://google.com/newsstand/s/CBIwicnpzyw), there is often confusion among women over the need for an annual physical examination. Some experts currently view many tests that are usually included in an annual physical examination as excessive, unnecessary, and costly. The article also states that what women also need is to be able to talk to their practitioner. The article goes on to mention that women often save up their questions for their visits with their physician and need time to discuss all of their concerns.

     Other healthcare experts have expressed concern that reimbursement issues and economic considerations may be a motivating factor in prescribing less frequent testing without regard for patient safety. The WorldPath Health Executive Wellness Examination addresses both of these concerns – both for women and for men
