I agree that emotional health is important too. If a person is optimistic, has a positive outlook, is happy, joyous and generous, it's good for one's immune system. It's just that emotional health is not something that typically gets measured for the purpose of trying to lower health care costs. Should happy people pay less for health insurance?
