The costs are so low you can easily inference a bit longer. The idea that a computer would be as lazy as a human is not even close to reality.

Not the cost of running the ai, the cost of potential tests and medical treatment if they do find something, I think?

Nah those make money not cost money (for providers).
Today you can try to cajole your human doctor into listening more, or ordering more tests, or considering things you heard online or from acquaintances. AI will be guided to take that into account less because a doctor being more sympathetic and bypassing "standard practice" is an expense caused by humanity that the machine can be trained to avoid.
Today you can go across town and try your luck with another doctor. If it's all AI, you'll just repeat your story to the same basic model and get the same basic dismissal.
The problem arose from trying to make people behave like machines in order to save money. Making a machine behave like a machine ain't gonna help.
You need to shift the goal from "saving money" to "helping people." AI doesn't do that.
