Aetna: Business
built 234 days ago
The Aetna case blasts Cavitat customers such as Dr. Michael Margolis, a dentist in Mesa, Ariz., who has spoken at Cavitat seminars. Aetna alleges that Margolis advocates that his patients prepare for surgery with "'hydrocolon therapy,' or what he crudely calls 'a tube up the booty cleans things out."' Margolis confirms this but says Aetna is taking his comments out of context. "If they don't want to pay for it, that's their business, but they don't have the right to tell me I can't do something," he says. The Arizona State Board of Dental Examiners disciplined Margolis in April, 2004, for recommending that a Cavitat-scanned patient have five teeth removed. Margolis is suing the board. "I didn't do anything wrong," he says.
