@VeryHappy You should probaby start a new thread, that’s a whole other can of worms.

Re: 3D mammos
I had noticed that my insurance would not cover these. I also decided I would rather not get the 3D even if it were covered. But then I kinda forgot about it.

Fast forward to my appt. There I am, stretched out, embracing the machine, the tech steps away to push the button…Wait! I say…is this the new 3D mammogram?

The answer was yes of course. No one had said anything, if there was anything different in the paperwork, nobody mentioned it, no signs or posters…

Getting the 2D mammo required the tech to redo some front desk paperwork although I don’t think I had to re-sign anything. If I had gotten the 3D my insurance would not have paid a penny.
