I can't imagine this taking strong hold in the US unless it shields physicians from legal consequences of false negatives or produces enough false positives to ensure revenue doesn't fall.
I don't see any way that the hospital systems running healthcare in the US would embrace a technology that reduces false positives (income) without decreasing false negatives (risk and lost income) at least as much.
