So while I was on SDN today, I notice a banner ad at the top for setting up NCV in a doctor's office. After clicking on it, it confirmed my suspicions that this is a fly-by-night organization (although I'm sure they will dispute that) that will setup untrained docs to do inexperienced NCVs without needle exams and bill for them. By AANEM standards, this should constitute fraudulent billing. I'm actually suprised SDN would allow this.
I do recognize that this is a google ad and SDN might not have a direct relationship with the company, but I also believe there are ways of stopping certain ads from being displayed on your website when using google ads.
I would ask that SDN look in to banning this ad from the website as contrary to the practice of standards of medicine and correct coding.

For those who don't currently see the ad, when I clicked on it, this is the website it took me to:
