Will we able to diagnose ourselves? No, that would be crazy
Will there still be huge wait times for MRIs and Surgeries? Yes, in a big data world diagnostic tools become the bottle neck
Does that kill for-profit clinics? hopefully, but probably not. For-profit becomes predatory in environments where choice is limited by ones own sense of mortality.
Do alternative medicines like naturopath and homeopath thrive or fail? They will do neither, they will continue to be fringe because its too hard to take these things from people who want them, but they will never thrive because they would need to be successful to thrive and there would need to be some factual basis for their practices to succeed.
I was moreso predicting, there there will be specific forms of cancer or genitic disorders, cured with a DNA test and 10 crispr injections over 10 days that can be self administered by an epipen. I really think we are close to testing things like that.
