So no one will break their arm if everyone can go get their temp and blood pressure checked, and a prescription for an acid blocker since you're here anyway, regularly? Awesome.

People will still break their arm and go to the E.R., but all of the dozens of people who are flooding emergency rooms due to easily preventable illnesses, won't be there. This will mean the wait will significantly decrease.
