I do think there is a difference between hmo and ppo insurance in scheduling appointments and the time the doctor spends with the patient. An hmo pays a doctor not to treat patients, while a ppo pays the doctor based on the treatment he/she performs and the doctor can bill more money for a longer visit. This may sound cynical, but it is the way it works.
