Doctors are still the highest paid professeion in the US, but somehow most have lost focus on the reason they became doctors
I am not a doctor and so have no skin in this game - but I would suggest that doctors became doctors to treat people, not to fill out forms. And like it or not US rations care by requiring forms out the wazoo. With the socialized versions of health plans being the most eggregious.
I would counter suggest that the larger problem (US healthcare costs) will not be easy to fix because there are so many moving parts that contribute to the problem - reimbursement per procedure (which necessarily rewards touch labor vs good planning or coordination), medical school costs, salaries, lawsuits and the effort to avoid them... . The key question is which are the primary drivers.
