確保公平收費？

艾咪和謝爾頓是朋友。他們正在聊天。
Amy: Hey Sheldon, did you hear the news? The government just changed the rules about how much doctors can charge for visits.
艾咪：嘿，謝爾頓，你聽說了嗎？政府剛剛改變了醫生收取看診掛號費的規定。
Sheldon: Yeah, I heard. The fees for signing up to see a doctor have gone up in many places. They used to have a limit of NT$150, but now they can charge more, often between NT$200 and NT$300. In Taipei, the Dianthus Group charges the most, at NT$2500 for special appointments.
謝爾頓：是的，我聽說了。許多地方的看診掛號費都有調漲。以前他們的上限是新台幣150元，但現在可以收更多，通常在新台幣200元至300元之間。在台北，禾馨醫療集團收費最高，特別門診要收取新台幣2,500元。
