Redundancy of care becomes a big issue because physicians order repetitive test not knowing or having the ability to see if other providers have already…

Currently, it seems such information, are by default disseminated through health care providers to certain populations in the society. Outside factors (political groups, industry organizations, environmental groups, etc.) often attempt to influence the position the FDA and Food Safety 's takes on a food safety issue such as this?
