Physicals

Ladies. Just wondering. How often do you get a physical exam each year? I myself have several physical exams each year.

UIL rules require one every year before school starts, or they cant play any sports

I get my prostrate checked once a year

As for regular physicals, yearly. If you're asking more about bloodwork for STDs, every 4-6 weeks.

This is not Europe were ladies are required to get check once a month. I really don't think providers have health insurence..,.. Wait I forgot Obama care

I love how some folks have so quickly adopted the name "Obama Care". Actually it was started by Kennedy, and the name has NEVER BEEN Obama Care.. It is the Affordable Care Act.
I know several people that wouldn't be able to have ANY health care if it wasn't for the Affordablle Care Act. My wife being one.. Try getting insurance under the old rules. I have Crones, and my wife had diabetes. No Insurance company would touch us..
Ok back on subject.. I get a checkup twice a year.

Many national-stage politicians have tried to move the US towards nationalized insurance and/or healthcare in one form or another, and Kennedy wasn't the first. The President made it his central policy plank. It exists because he got behind it and pushed. For good or ill, he should own that accomplishment name and all. So I really couldn't give a rat's ass what sugar-coated name the Senate put on HR 3590 while making the sausage. IMO, it's superficial to bridle at what people call it, particularly since most of the law's supporters also call it Obamacare. The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act doesn't exactly roll off the tongue. A name is what people call something. Obamacare is a name of said law. And since, in spite of what reactionaries want to believe, we don't live in a totalitarian state, no one is obliged to use the "official" name.

Why would you get "several physical exams each year?" You enjoy getting pricked, prodded, and probed?

I'm pretty sure it physical is a euphemism for STI panel. Either that or his GP loves him.
