If you take that finding to a logical conclusion, you could say that if you take away health care altogether you would lower health care costs.

Of course you would. Demand would disappear. (As would health quality.)

Of course. If there is no health care than there is no health care cost...

I'm not proposing or supporting that idea, or even opposing the idea of more preventive care, my point is only that more preventative care is likely to increase costs not decrease them.
