Whaaa?

Besides the obvious - doesn’t denying early care just create bigger expenses in the long run? Isn’t that what “they” say?

Actually there are substantive studies out there that prove little or no advantage to 'preventative care' ~ it's a fraud and sham.

After all, if you are healthy you are healthy ~ and subjecting you to extensive testing and evaluation doesn't change that, nor do they find anything about which you should be concerned.

Knowing that the doctors are simply reporting the obvious ~ quit treating healthy people who are overweight or who smoke. There's nothing to be gained until they actually get sick.

They don’t mean early care by doctors, they mean early care for yourself. They ( doctors) don’t think that people who smoke or are obese, deserve to live.

Some insurance doesn’t cover it anyway. A friend of mine was denied coverage for knee surgery because she is obese.
