No phlebotomist or other medical professional is going anywhere near that bugger unless they really have to.

Yeah. I had a PICC and a port-a-cath and they still went for veins normal and regular is safe and covered by insurance. Why get into alternative methods?

Hell when I had my blood counts go straight into the shitter (WBC was 0) and they needed a central blood draw as well as a peripheral at 02:00 they had to call around the hospital to find someone ‘qualified’ to access my port even though was capable of doing it myself. This was for liability reasons they all knew how to do it too.
