Well, pretty much any advanced healthcare is initially open only to the wealthy but after a while the prices drop and the rest of us can start to afford it. It's the way of the world.
That depends on how it's used. In a Free Market Healthcare system, ya, that's how it would be used. In a more Socialistic or other system focused on Need, that can be avoided.
In a more socialistic system genetic engineering will be used to create a population of docile, compliant workers who will serve the elites without question. If their health is bad I doubt that the leadership will give a fuck about their health any more than the Castro brothers do about the average Cuban.
When the Castro brothers are sick either they fly in the best doctors from Spain or they go to Spain themselves.
Everyone else gets dick for healthcare.
No.

I like the job of the genetic engineers. They just change the game.

Yes, but these creations might deserve another name. Evolution would rapidly accelerate under such conditions and the neo-humans would become a separate, artificial species at some point.
