Happy birthday from Don Berwick

A friend closer to my age writes:

So my brother's 67th birthday is tomorrow and he just received a Happy Birthday email from -- Medicare! No kidding!

After they wish him happy birthday they tell him to check on his eligibility for screening for:

Prostate
PSA (which, recall, is now not recommended in all guidelines)
Cardiovascular
Colorectal
Abdominal aortic aneurysm

Zowie, look what we have to look forward to! My mind is blown!
