I just got put on this thing with my cardiologist, with a great big blurb about how great it is. I have been searching for more negative information on it than was in the post above, but all I've been able to find is various organizations touting how great it is. Has anybody else found any critical articles about it?

I'm just really nervous about a program that earns more when they save money on me.
