It's not mandatory because the old people who secured for themselves strong families and resources in their lifetime will still live out their life happily. It's just the dregs on society who will die sooner.
If 99% of people can't afford it then 99% of people shouldn't get it. They are going to die, why waste resources on them to delay an inevitability by a length of time that really means nothing in the end.
If you treat your elderly like shit, no one is going to have faith in your system. People will start to notice that going that extra mile, working those extra hours, etc. is pointless since you are still destined to end up being a used up invalid to be discarded as soon as your body is too broken for your labor to be profitable. That doesn't strike me as particularly stable.
So, "mandatory euthanasia" with extra steps?

Probably 99% of their population couldn't afford it. End of life care is insanely expensive.
