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 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.在开处方前有更多可选择的诊断和治疗去考虑。所以实际花在病人身上的时间多了。那为什么会感觉时间不够了？？？？不明白。。。解释不通
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.
正解B
看了讨论帖还是没理解透。B应该怎么解释矛盾？？？感觉自己解释的乱七八糟的，还解释不了为什么医生决定时间不够了。。。
请NN指点！！鄙人逻辑真是烂的可以，赐教赐教~~~
