Fair questions Baraka. But for me, it's a starting point or at the very least, a discussion worth having. You could merge this with some sort of basic national health care program.

The main problem as you suggest is the establishment of standards. I would assume, basic rule of thumbs would be a place to begin. EX: Healthy range for blood pressure is 120/80, BMI ranges, cholesterol etc.

Smokers should be treated the same in my opinion because it affects everyone.
