The only way an 80-year old lady is going to get a pap smear is if she goes to her gynecologist's office and asks for it.

As reported on "60 mintues", THAT is the source of the information. Along with the pap smear a small army of other health care professional running test after test, treatment after treatment and billing the Gov for each procedure. That report is entitled, "The Cost of Dieing".
This "vast majority" would that be 80%? More? Something less than a 100%? Therein lays the problem!
