Yes.
Remove the for profit "health" insurance companies and provide people with these things. It will reduce our societal costs and improve outcomes for all.
What's silly is for profit healthcare.
Health insurance companies need to be disbanded so that we as a society can afford these things.
Our healthcare industry is just a massive profiteering racket.
... Yes. It's a society. Society should bear the costs of what the most vulnerable need.
Yes, because prevention is superior to treatment after the fact in both outcomes & overall cost.
Though it seems you have a differing understanding of "Medically Necessary" to my own so i suspect we won't agree on this.
"For profit healthcare" is a misnomer is should be called something like "profit equilibrium maintenance : healthcare edition"
The best outcome for a "for profit" is profit, not healthcare. Given the choice between larger profits and better healthcare outcomes the profit will win out, every time.
