As an RN (and also female over 40 on BCP) …I have never heard of this practice and know for certain that is is not “standard procedure”.
My biggest concern at this point would be what several others have mentioned…if your insurance is covering these tests on an annual basis, your MD is obviously coding a diagnosis that you and your daughter do not have (per your report of no health problems or family histories) In this day and age of insurance reform and denials I would be very concerned about future “pre-existing condition” issues or increased insurance premiums…Request a copy of all your records from that MD so you can see what is being recorded in your chart…and I would find a new MD for future visits/care.
