  1. They are supposed to actually do the physical exam, but some doctors will "cheat" if they think they can get away with it.


  2. probably not as their license is on the line

  3. Well, I suppose they could, but it would be wrong. You need to actually make sure that the patient checks out in all the areas required on the form.

  4. They can, but its wrong and illegal. They can lose their job and get sued for that. The components they check on a physical is very important because if the person het hurt because the doctor gave him a supposdly good physical, then they can sue and others..:P
