The blood testing costs are extraordinarily high--well beyond what I've ever paid even without insurance.
I do not believe the average person in the United States requires an EKG every year.
There is some evidence that annual physicals actually do more harm than good.
ACA mandates that a annual wellness check be provided for free to the patient, and that includes a blood test. It may well cost the insurer $400 but that is because that is how they want to run their grift, not for any other reason.
Put these together and I think this is basically irrelevant.
