According to "Freedom Outpost,"President Obama has issued an executive order that all persons between ages 15 and 65 be tested for HIV.  Insurance companies must cover testing at no cost to patients.

The exact language of the executive order reads:  

"Based on these and other data, recommendations for HIV testing and treatment have changed. The U.S. Preventive Services Task Force now recommends that clinicians screen all individuals ages 15 to 65 years for HIV, and the Department of Health and Human Services Guidelines for Use of Antiretroviral Agents now recommends offering treatment to all adolescents and adults diagnosed with HIV.  

"This executive order will “coordinate Federal efforts in response to recent advances regarding how to prevent and treat HIV infection. The Initiative will support further integration of HIV prevention and care efforts; promote expansion of successful HIV testing and service delivery models; encourage innovative approaches to addressing barriers to accessing testing and treatment; and ensure that Federal resources are appropriately focused on implementing evidence-based interventions that improve outcomes along the HIV care continuum.”  

"By the way, under Obamacare, which seems to be imploding before it is even implemented with Democrats already calling for reform, this executive order says that “The Act is expanding access to recommended preventive services with no out-of-pocket costs, including HIV testing, and, beginning in 2014, insurance companies will not be able to deny coverage based on pre-existing conditions, including HIV.”

do not be fooled.

someone is paying for it...

after he signed the bill to allow homosexuals to marry it's the least he can do to clear his conscience.
Our tax dollars eat that bill too. Anyone have a clue what a single lab test cost? $250 and up.

Yeah, it's the insurance company that raises its rates and passes the cost on to the public.
Or it's the VA or Medicare that passes the extra costs to the taxpayer.
Obama issues orders and we get screwed.
