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.

In eastern europe where I live now, they have solved it by making it 
impossible to get a time within the public system. On the very rare 
occasions that I go to the doctor, I always go to a private one, so I can 
book a time within a day or two.
