Worst case scenario:
People will be getting screened earlier and earlier. They will be told they have a horrible disease but there is nothing they can do about it because it is too expensive. The mortality rates from the major killers like heart disease and cancer will drop. This will not be a good sign though. The mortality rates from suicide and poisoning from attempts at self medication will rise. The deaths will just be moved from one to the other category, giving the false appearance of effective and safe treatments.
