I didn't understand this question, for some reason.

It says: it is clear that insurance companies do not have a significant economic incentive to delay claim payments to doctors.

Why would the insurance company have no incentive to delay claim payments?


Let's first understand the text:
1. It has been estimated that the laziness showed by insurance companies cost them, because lazier they are in refunding, more the physician add the refund cost.
2. So, in conclusion, there is no incentive for insurance companies to delay the payment to the physician since doing so will cost them time and money even though some mistakes are done by the physicians itself.

Now, to weaken the conclusion (not argument), we need to directly attack the conclusion. A simple attack would be to show an instance where insurance companies do get incentives by showing their tardiness in a refund. Answer E does exactly that!
