I think this has been tried in sweden as well. Sweden also started to
charge a minimum fee of around 20 EUR or so to get rid of old people who
just went to the doctor to socialize when it was free.

But you meet the nicest people. When I checked in for last year's exam the
receptionist led me to an exam room which sort of surprised me since
there's usually a short wait. When I walked in my doctor and the woman in
the room were rather surprised too.

It turned out the receptionist had been told her husband was going to pick
her up and the first old fart through the door would do as her husband.
