Down syndrome test

I have decided to go for NIPT and told doc about it. But I'm surprised that she insisted on Oscar + preeclampsia, or oscar + preeclampsia + nipt. Why can't I just do NIPT alone? when It seems like alot mother out there did the same. What should I do? Should I insist? Change a doc or? Sigh.

My gynae recommend NIPT first if the results came out unfavorable than do Oscar to double confirm it as Oscar has its risk. We never do preclampsia as I do not have the sign/symptom like high blood pressure, protein in urine or swollen feet / hand.
