Research shows that Cardiologists often order an unnecessary test when other less risky, noninvasive procedures give them more accurate information. Angiograms include the injection fraction which requires the catheter to be inserted past the aortic valve for 5 minutes, increasing the risk of dislodging clots, stroke, and arrhythmia.
All for an extra $300. Time to stop fee for service abuse.
