In Kantovia, physicians’ income comes from insurance companies, which require physicians to document their decisions in treating patients and to justify deviations from the companies’ treatment guidelines. Ten years ago physicians were 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 a patient spends with a physician during an office visit has actually increased somewhat over the last ten years.
Which of the following, if true, most helps to resolve the apparent discrepancy between physicians’ perceptions 认知and the change in the actual time spent?
A.Patients are more likely to be in a hurry nowadays and are less willing to wait a long time to see their physician.
B.Physicians today typically have a wider range of options in diagnosis and treatment to consider with the patient before prescribing.
C.Physicians are increasingly likely to work in group practices, sharing the responsibility of night and weekend work.
D.Most patients would rather trust their physicians than their insurance companies to make decisions about their treatment.
E.Since the insurance companies pay physicians a set amount for each office visit, it is to physicians’ financial advantage to see as many patients as possible.
答案选B。
题干是懂了，可是咋想也不明白为啥是B，也许是我还是没理解意思。
题目是不是在说美国现在很多医药保险公司的做法。医生看病人时，必须详细写出他们的诊断，并说明为什么。保险公司对各种病症都有治疗指示，说明什么可以做，什么疗程不付款。那么如果医生决定疗程后，与保险公司的指示不同，就要说明理由
然后说大夫们现在觉得给病人看病的时间由于保险公司的要求降低了。但是事实上时间是增加了。。
我就理解到这份上了。。求牛人指点！不胜感激！
