I normally frown when people suggest that tech will fix medicine, but I actually believe it for the singular use case of triaging whether or not a problem needs medical attention. The biggest barrier is that the false negative is a very dangerous situation (i.e., telling a patient it can wait when it's actually emergent), so no tech company with a functioing legal department will want to take on that liability. So for now, the second best solution is the "doc-in-a-box"/urgent care outfit that doesn't have all the expensive machines and can therefore charge less, or you can see an NP/PA who can charge less because they have less formal education.
