- InitialLastName 5y agoThere's a diminishing (and potentially hazardous) return to health screening past a certain point. At the very least, more screenings raises costs without necessarily improving outcomes. At worst, it can generate false positives that lead to unnecessary interventions, or false negatives where a serious issue is ignored because "the doctor didn't bring it up".
