Do your doctors have a cap on their fees and do they have a cap on what they can make? What would be the incentive for good doctors wanting to be excellent doctors?

I don't think there are any caps. It's all publicly funded (income tax). The doctors get paid through the insurers. The incentive for a doctor to become a great doctor would be the better you are the more patients that would want to see you, therefore the more insurance pay you get because for every patient you see you make a certain amount of money off them.

You can go to any doctor you'd like but usually that doctor has to refer you to a specialist. Either way, doctor visits, surgery or anything hospital wise is free. Dental, vision, massage etc is not but we have insurance that changes depending on what your work offers. It usually covers at least 80% of the costs sometimes more.
