Rod Mohr was having trouble sleeping. His physician prescribed a CPAP machine. Rod's insurance covers the machine for 30 days, with physician certification that the patient is using the machine every night and that the patient is seen every 30 days. After 30 days, Rod went to see his doctor and the doctor asked if he was using the machine. Rod said, "Well, I use it, but about half the time." Rod's physician says, "I am going to go ahead and certify that you are using it daily. But let's do better this next month. I am not really fond of all this insurance intervention into how I treat my patients, and insurers have plenty of profits. So, I am just signing." Which of the following best describes the physician's decision?
A) The physician framed the decision from his perspective as a doctor.
B) The physicians framed it as helping out a patient.
