If so, why not? Why wouldn’t those government people’s orders be “Make sure people don’t use too much medical resources”

Well, if the government is accountable to the people, then pressures from below should shape its policies. But in America as-is I suppose you’re right that there would be no reason to think that that would happen, only a proletarian democracy can truly ensure that a government is responsive to the needs and desires of the people.
