It's not doctor pay, it's economic repurcussions of monopolies. It's also not just limiting the numbers of physicians, it's locking out alternate providers of care and other models.
Right now US healthcare is very hierarchical, with physicians at the top, nurses close by. Other professions and services are subsidiary to them. You don't get to choose a provider based on skillset per se, you are forced to abide by this hierarchy.
That's the real economic cost, the restrictions in provider and service choice.
