More realistically:

Patient: "Doctor, I got shot in the chest."
Doctor: "Have you considered it might be anxiety?"
Patient: "WTF are you talking about? Look, I'm bleeding out all over the floor here."
Doctor: "You'd be surprised what anxiety can do."
Patient: "Doc, I'm dying from A GUNSHOT WOUND."
Doctor: "Ang. Zai. Eh. Tee. Kthxbye."

Ahhh capitalism, where insurance companies pay doctors to pretend everything is fine so they don’t have to spend money.

At least in a state funded system there is the occasional connection made between a healthy population and higher productivity and GDP.
