Playing devil's advocate here:
Who wants to treat a non-compliant patient, anyway? If you tell a patient to quit drinking because half his liver is gone and that patient continues to down a 5th of Crown Royal every weekend, then what are you supposed to do? Keep taking the patient's or government's money until they die from liver failure?
Doctors are doctors, not magicians. Sooner or later, the patient has to do his/her part.
I remind you, I am playing devil's advocate.
