标题: GWD-25-12关于E选项，我怎么都搞不明白，希望大家来看看～
我今天做了GWD16,这个题一直没想明白啊：
GWD25-Q12
InKantovia, physicians’ income comes from insurance companies, which requirephysicians to document their decisions in treating patients and to justifydeviations from the companies’ treatment guidelines. Ten years ago physicianswere allowed more discretion. Most physicians believe that the companies’requirements now prevent them from spending enough time with patients. Yet the average amount of time apatient spends with a physician during an office visit has actually increasedsomewhat over the last ten years.
Which ofthe following, if true, most helps to resolve the apparent discrepancy betweenphysicians’ perceptions and the change in the actual time spent?
A. Patients are more likely to be in a hurry nowadays and areless willing to wait a long time to see their physician.
B. Physicians today typically have a wider range of options indiagnosis and treatment to consider with the patient before prescribing.
C. Physicians are increasingly likely to work in grouppractices, sharing the responsibility of night and weekend work.
D. Most patients would rather trust their physicians thantheir insurance companies to make decisions about their treatment.
E. Since the insurance companies pay physicians a set amountfor each office visit, it is to physicians’ financial advantage to see as manypatients as possible.

查了很多以前的讨论贴，好像没有人问E嘛，我觉得E很对啊，我的想法是这样的：因为保险公司是为每个office visit付一笔钱的，这样的话医生当然希望visit越多越好，这样他们就可以赚更多；而fact是现在每个visit的时间增加了，所以为了增加visits的数量，总时间就要增加；所以医生就抱怨保险公司没有给他们足够的时间；因为文章中前面说的是enough time with patients，后面是average amount of time,很自然就有“visits的数量”这个gap啊～另外题目一开始就提出了income这个问题，E也提到了，怎么看都觉得E比B更像正确答案啊～希望NN们能回答我的问题啊，我实在想不出为什么这种想法不对～谢谢大家了～

If physicians today typically have a wider range of options in diagnosis and treatment to consider with the patient before prescribing, then physicians have to explain each and every possible options with the patient before prescribing. That explanation step ONLY takes more time now than 10 years ago. Thus, the average amount of time a patient spends with a physician during an office visit has actually increased somewhat over the last ten years just because the doctor has to go through the talking part to explain EVERYTHING to the patient.

LZ, how could you use E to "resolve the apparent discrepancy between physicians’ perceptions and the change in the actual time spent"?

It has nothing to do with the TOTAL time mentioned.
