Being in extreme pain sounds like something that should be dealt with promptly but a balance should be struck here given all societies face real resource limits.

There comes a point where spending more money on healthcare means there is less to spend on social support and that leads to worse health outcomes because poverty is a huge fe of ill health.

To take it to the extreme, nobody wants to live in a society made up only of doctors where there is no food to eat.

Living in the US I certainly feel I have been offered excess healthcare, tests given routinely that would JIT be ordered in other countries with better health outcomes. I suspect these are provided to reduce the amount spent lawyers so maybe it saves money in the end given the peculiarities of the US.
