Whike I agree with you that lifestyle plays a big part on ones health, I can't buy your theory that people would seek the same early treatment with only a Cat plan. That is a major issue  with high deductibles and co-insurance on basic BC/BS coverage. People put off a visit until the condition becomes severe to avoid paying out of pocket. 

When dental coverage first became available, they included cleaning as a "free coverage". The theory was get the persom to the dentist for an exam rather than wait for teeth to rot. Dental insurance was the best thing for both dentists and patients.

 I fail to understand why you, a Doc. opposse health insurance for all. Regan signed into law that the ER room cannot turn anyone away regardless of ability to pay. Think of the ER visits if there were only CAT plans! As it is, in many area the majority of ER visits are for colds and other minor ailments.
