From what I heard it's also easier for Scrubs to do things right since the focus was never on the illness. A show like House had to make illnesses outlandish to be entertaining.

That’s true! It’s not a focus, but there are often throwaway lines regarding a diagnosis based on symptoms or medicine the can treat/help it. And I’ve heard that’s accurate. But good point- the diseases or illnesses are generally irrelevant to the plot.
