I agree that physicians wages may be part of it. The AMA keeps a tight control on how many physicians are produced to keep fees high, but physician incomes haven't really been increasing. Doctors, I believe, generally make less now adjusting for inflation than they did in the 90s, which I've heard described as like some kind of golden age or something.
