•PAP smears on women younger than 21 or who have had a hysterectomy for a non-cancer disease

These darlings are aware that the PAP smear is for Cervical Cancer and the cervix is often left in place?

•Bone scan screening for osteoporosis in women younger than 65 or men younger than 70 with no risk factors

Glad this rule was not in place prior to this. My mom's bones would still look like Swiss cheese rather then gradually growing stronger with the treatment she is getting now.

with no risk factors
