Full-body Scams, er a ... Scans

By Stephen Bucaro

Full-body CT (Computer Tomography) scanners are appearing

in strip malls and office centers all over the country.

Many doctors are recommending a full-body CT scan (follow

the kick-back money). The sales pitch; "A full-body scan

can find disease early when it is more treatable." The

scans cost between $600.00 and $3,000.00 and are not

covered by Medicare or health insurance plans when no

symptoms exist.

The scam is most profitable when perpetrated against

individuals over 50 years of age. Scans of individuals in

this age group often show scars from long ago healed cysts

and benign spots on the kidney, liver, or pancreas.

Doctors and hospitals can use these meaningless

irregularities to generate thousands of dollars in

unnecessary tests. False positive test results can

generate profits from biopsies and invasive surgeries.
