Dear Krishma
Is practicing only all the official questions and Gmat Prep questions enough to get ready for exam? How much is the possibility in the exam day we see similar questions?
Why option (B) is correct -
B. Physicians today typically have a wider range of options in diagnosis and treatment to consider with the patient before prescribing.
Consider this:
10 years ago when someone went to the physical with a cough, he would assume it to be bacterial infection or flu and give antibiotics and some symptom control medicines.
Today when someone goes, the physician has to consider bacterial, flu, covid, pneumonic, lower lung capacity etc. For each there are multiple treatment paths. The company has given guidelines for each and the physician has consider the treatment path under those guidelines. He may have less discretion though he may not be spend extra time to finally write the prescription.

B. Physicians today typically have a wider range of options in diagnosis and treatment to consider with the patient before prescribing.
Resolve the apparent discrepancy between physicians’ perceptions and the change in the actual time spent?
I understand that B is the only option which helps to explain the increased time of patient with Physicians. But the question ask to solve discrepancy between physicians’ perceptions and the change in the actual time spent. I still don't get it why physicians think they are spending less time although in reality they are the ones spending time with patient to select from wider options available.
For example, if i spent 30 min earlier on workout and now after including more exercise in my workout session, i am spending 1 hr. How can my perception be different in both scenerio about the time?
Thanks for your help!

Hello
thanks for great explanation
However, still I just don't understand the role of first part of argument in analysis. I mean it was easier to solve only by adhering to that last few sentences, So what is the role of this part exactly? (In Kantovia, physicians’ income comes from insurance companies, which require physicians to document their decisions in treating patients and to justify deviations from the companies’ treatment guidelines. Ten years ago physicians were allowed more discretion.)
The first two sentences provide the context:thanks for great explanation

- Currently, physicians have to document their decisions and justify deviations from the guidelines.
- Ten years ago, physicians were allowed more discretion (things were a bit more lax).
Then the passage goes on to tell us (1) how physicians perceive this change and (2) actual data that seems to contradict the physicians' perception -- but none of that would make any sense if we didn't know what the change actually was.
So yes, the second half of the passage might be the heart of the argument, but the argument wouldn't make any sense without the context provided in the first half.
I hope that helps!
