Well, if someone has food poisoning they won't be eating any food, and if they don't get treated they will likely dehydrate and die. If people have to choose between paying for their medical bills, because they can't get insurance, and paying the utilities I would think you'd want to fix the underlying problem so they can get back to payinf for said utilities.
Fixing healthcare would let people get healthy affordably and be able to buy groceries and pay utilities.
