A solution for HCR *and* TSA, it's a two-fer!
People are upset that non-medical staff are examining, poking, and prodding their bodies when flying.

People are also upset that they cannot see a medical doctor to exam, poke, and prod, their bodies, for their regular health care checks.

So, why not combine the two? Staff the TSA with federally paid medical doctors, and if you manage to qualify for an invasive scan, you *also* get a free health check-up!

6. It's a guaranteed patient flow!
No building up a practice, they come to you!

At the security point, you could chose a certified doctor, or a generic TSA employee, to examine you... what would you choose?

9. I had a similar thought!
If I was going to have to be radiated, I'd like to have a radiologist on hand to see if I've anything that should be checked into further, what with *NOT* having health care.
