"governments will be incentivized..."

No they will not. Not in the least. Or put it this way, regardless of any incentives you can imagine, the overriding dynamic will be that powerful people will use immortality to remain in power forever, and they will have every incentive to prevent whomever they deem undesirable, unproductive, etc. from getting good health care.

Which is exactly how it works now.

Immortality will not be called immortality, it will be called premium health care. It will be incredibly expensive. It will be a subscription service.
