Might possibility save money in the long run.

I wish it did. But the truth is, preventative medicine can end up costing more. The cost of dying never goes away, just gets postponed. You live a better, healthier life when you take care of yourself. But it can cost more.

OTOH, it only cost you a few thousand to find out you have heart disease and take the health and supplement approach to it, vs not doing this and ending up with a 100K bill for the Cath lab and the surgeon.

why not just have an annual scan for everyone or every 2 year body scan as the starting point for eveyone.

Might possibility save money in the long run.

That makes sense, except saving money does not seem to be the objective.
