I actually did ask about this at one doctor's office, and they let me know I was welcome to decline the arbitration clause (the document even noted that option), but that the doctor would refuse to see me. This has appeared to be the case with every doctor I have found over the last few years.

This is common. With Elder Care, if you did not agree to a Binding Arbitration agreement that usually also included a non-disclosure agreement that you would never disclose why you were seeking restitution via the only vehicle you contractually agreed too... arbitration you would not be accepted for any care options.
