The same thing that would happen if a saw bones prescribed the medicine: death.

I don't take anything unless I give it the ok. I am more conscientious in my health maintenance and more interested in my well being than any medical caregiver.

Then it's YOUR problem. Greenwald is not advocating that people switch to self-medication; what he's criticizing is that medical prescriptions alone have the full force of law, while other kinds of expert advice - your lawyer, investment counselor, etc. - can be followed optionally. Greenwald's position is that dispensing by prescription should be mandatory only in cases where self-medication would create a public health problem, such as use of antibiotics that lead to bacterial resistance.

According to this study they already kill 700,000+ people a year:

According to the groundbreaking 2003 medical report Death by Medicine, by Drs. Gary Null, Carolyn Dean, Martin Feldman, Debora Rasio and Dorothy Smith, 783,936 people in the United States die every year from conventional medicine mistakes. That's the equivalent of six jumbo jet crashes a day for an entire year.
