HIV testing - A standard part of your yearly physical

[KSigkid]

The CDC can recommend it, I'm just not sure if I want a whole lot of money being spent in forcing physicians and hospitals to implement this. If individual hospitals and clinics are in favor of this plan, they can accept it and use their own (or the money from their trustees) money for it.

Just in case someone has not seen or heard about this, the following link is directly to CDC's site:
http://www.cdc.gov/hiv/topics/testin...care/index.htm
While whole page is worth reading, this is the link to FAQ/Q&A:

The report I heard, IIRC, indicated that this only a recommendation. BUT any of their recommendations carry a great deal of wieght on what the medical industry does .

As for me, I get tested every time I go to the blood bank.......part of FDA regs.
