This already exists: * there are prescription management companies (middlemen) who already advertise ("recommend") to doctors * doctors no longer directly get kickbacks, because the FDA * you don't think drug companies don't already control what doctors see? https://pulsepoint.com/hcp-marketing * who do you think finances medicine information?

So ads for drugs but the product is free like Google search? Count me in. My mom spends half her social security check on medical care.

Not sure what you think "the product" is and how it would help your mom. The relevant part of the article is about selling you smartwatches, selling doctors software so they can share your medical history with Google, and selling you potentially better skin moisturizer. None of that will be free.
