Americans already consume more healthcare than anyone in human history by a huge margin. A large proportion of that healthcare isn't really healthcare at all, because it does more harm than good.

If you're paying out of pocket, you have the right to demand as many tests and as many treatments as you can afford. If you're relying on an insurer to foot the bill, then that insurer has two choices - refuse to pay for some treatments, or watch costs (and premiums) trend towards infinity.
