Make those programs go away, and CPT codes would eventually die.
It is not going to go away so unfortunately we need to learn to live life with it, and instead make it irrelevant, or niche, just like a ferrari is niche.

The only way to do that is that insurance and CPTs get so expensive that an alternative system is demanded by the market.. and people opt in (and regs allow for it). In effect, ferraris vs corolla. Corollas don't care about CPTs, Medical Billing, Eligibility, Copays, Coinsurance, or Authorizations.
The only way we can get more honda's is by having more independent doctors and less hospitals.
Hospitals create monopolies, independent doctors break monopolies with competition.
