Quick question.  Are these companies being reimbursed for their services?

        I personally know the coordinator of Life line screening.  She is a
chapter
        board member for Northern Ohio.  They are reputable.  They do employ
RVT/RDMS
        and make sure their employees obtain these credentials.  It is only
a
        screening.  We have followed up on a few of these in our accredited
lab and
        they coorelate but again the numbers are few.  They are not to take
away
        business, perhaps even produce more business with abnormal findings.
There
        is a research project out there I believe in Kettering where they
are going
        to blindly test the same patient by Lifeline and the lab.
