@JL_Lycette @paul what if the provider who ordered the tests took the time (I know, I know *had* the time/was compensated for the time) to teach the patient how to interpret the results at a basic level. What if the provider counseled the patient beforehand to have a loved one with them when they read the results.

On the whole I support the cares act, and I think we can work out the kinks.
