My old doctor would have me come to the office for an annual health exam then she would order the same standard blood test screens that she did every year, then she would call me back to the office to discuss their findings and charge me for second visit. I finally told her I wouldn't do two visits for the same thing any more and made her put in for the blood tests a couple weeks in advance of my annual physical so the results would be back before I went.
Now my new doctor just mails me the results after my physical. Then I got him to change all my prescriptions to 90 day supply instead of just 30. Saves me two thirds the annual copay fees.
