The United States spends more per capita on health care than any other country in the world. Health cost inflation is the number one problem with the US health care market. If care were cheaper, coverage would expand and costs would be less of a burden.
In my opinion, the "very minor reforms" you mentioned will probably accelerate health cost inflation by subsidizing more consumption of health care goods and offering no incentive for offsetting conservation. They may ease the symptoms for a time, but they will exacerbate the underlying illness.
