It's a boon for low income people in low income countries. Some random facts:

- They avoid doctors because it's expensive and they don't want to burden their families.

- There aren't enough doctors, regardless of social spending.

- There isn't enough social spending.

Even if this only increases bandwidth of existing doctors, or allows lesser-trained nurses to cosplay as a doctor during triage to increase bandwidth, it's a great thing.
