Content Data

This page contains data entry 98985 from the Axioma AXP content repository. The structured data below represents the complete record for this entry.

"Increased risk" needs a lot more context before it causes a change in standard of care. Let's say the rate of colon cancer in people under 45 has increased a whopping 200%. But what if the baseline before the increase was only 5000 people a year? That 200% increase now represents only 15000 people.

Subjecting millions of people to annual Colonoscopies to catch an additional 10000 people is incredibly expensive and time consuming.

Which is exactly why a lot of diagnostics and tests aren't offered to everyone across the board as routine care.

And not for nothing, these kinds of questions are common in any healthcare system. Private, public, whatever. Resource scarcity and allocation weigh on all systems from the privately insured to single payer public systems.

This isn't some endorsement of our very flawed American medical system either. But I don't think this is a situation where the medical establishment is the villain.
