I went to the dentist a couple of weeks ago and had the shortest dental visit I've had. They did the X-rays, then the dental assistant spent five minutes cleaning my teeth and pronounced them good. The dentist came in and looked for about one minute and said they were fine. I was sent on my way.
They billed my insurance for over a thousand dollars.

If that dentist only billed, say, $150 ($40 per x-ray including time, wear, consumables), $20 for teeth cleaning time, $50 for rent, property rates, taxes, profit) then you'd pay far less in insurance. They all bill more because they can.
