Thank you. Physicians are just employees of the hospital like nurses. They can try to keep the cost down by not ordering unneeded tests, but a majority of the time they can't do anything about prices.
Whats cool is that physicians aren't allowed to own hospitals due to fear of "greed". But people whose entire career is business and making money can :).
A baker can own a bakery, a lawyer can own a law firm, a doctor can't own a hospital.
The US is a mess.
