Out of curiosity, how does one 'abuse' healthcare?

If I'm sick, I go to the doctor. If I go to the doctor and I'm not sick, he kicks me out. Pretty straightforward.

Maybe I'm naive. My pinko commie socialist healthcare system has probably blinded me.

I don't understand how anyone can reasonably argue against the idea of universal healthcare. When a society is healthy and educated as a whole, that society does better than the ones who do not provide these basic necessities.
