Spreading the price around more people isn't the only way for price to go down. If there were less supply side regulation of doctors than there would be more of them, and their time would be less expensive.

Absolutely. I remember in the 90s we supposedly had a "doctor glut" so the government paid medical schools not to train new doctors.
