The free procedures, well they’re really screenings anyway, cut costs by catching ealry disease so that’s a good benefit for everyone.

The argument is that the number of procedures done versus the number of people who will benefit from early detection is not cost-effective. If you’re one of those who have a disease caught early via those screenings benefit, but if you’re the bean counter trying to make the numbers work - you’d be in a bind.
