No, you are flat out wrong and anyone with an understanding of good health policy will understand this. Screening can lead to iatrogenics and unnecessary costs. It is not automatically a net gain, it has to PROVE that it makes patients live longer or better, just like any other intervention. And in many cases, screening policies actually make things worse for all kinds of reasons.
