Yep, if safer or more effective innovative techniques become known, US MDs are not expected to practice them until those innovations become accepted as the standard of care. Other industries/professions don't get that break.
It's probably also not great for patients with rare diseases, that physicians are penalized for trying to solve problems no physician has solved before.
