    Rules about closed-door restaurnts etc...

    It's completely illegal in the City of Buenos Aires to have a closed door NOT REGISTERED restaurant. They could be registered for taxes with the AFIP, but still it would be very hard to get a "habilitación" (license) to operate. It's not impossible, BUT VERY DIFFICULT.

    My Company tells me this - is it true?

    When a company sends you to do a medical exam, they pick the clinic, so it's very strange that you can always fudge the results... Most of the medical screening is done in specialized labs that cater to companies, and only do exams for labor purposes.
