One aspect that's missing whenever healthcare costs are discussed is the so-called "opportunity cost" that patients incur whenever they wait for medical care. Granted, there are doctors who inexcusably run hours late. However, if physicians were compensated for their time, including hours spent filling out forms or wading through pre-authorization requests, I think you'll find that they'll value patients' time significantly more.
