In the early 2000s I remember multiple times stepping onto scales barefoot (at the doctor's office) to measure my body fat %. Nowadays, they just do BMI which doesn't account for lean muscle mass at all. It seems like a downgrade to me. Why did this happen?

How to get an accurate estimate of cost of visit before I go
Hey, I want to estimate how much I am going to have to pay before I go. What documents do I need to get a good estimate? I assume my benefits document, but how can I estimate how much that is something that isn't directly included in there?
Are there documents or sites that tell me a good estimate of how much the procedure and visit will cost as a baseline, then apply how much I think insurance will pay?
I would rather not have to call my insurance company.
Question because I don’t trust the information I was given
My younger sister; 33, has been in ICU and general admission in the hospital more times than I can count this year. It started off as pneumonia turned sepsis. She also had to have her right lung completely removed. Besides those issues, she is an alcoholic and does meth which I know for a fact, keeps putting her back in the hospital and giving her pneumonia again and again. My question is based on the fact that she CLAIMS that she was told that if she comes back to the hospital again she will be refused recuperative care and will be forced into hospice/comfort care. I have never heard of hospice being forced on someone. I know that organ donations can be refused due to bad life choices, but that isn’t her situation, just that she keeps making bad life choices that are essentially pushing her closer and closer to deaths door. Is she pulling her typical lies or can the hospital actually refuse to give her care that will help her recover?

Is India a good country for medical treatment? Is it risky to go to there?
Is India safe for medical tourism? There are low medical treatments, much cheaper than in developed countries, often costing 40-80% less. Why is healthcare in India so cheap?
