The way the Obamacare people've gotten "serious" about financial issues, is all kinds of little tweaks and gotchas in the system. They lower payments to health care providers through the government health insurance plans, they tax prescription drug makers $20 billion here, they tax medical device manufacturers $38.6 billion there, oh, and there's some "second" excise tax on insurance companies also. A lot of stuff here and there like that.

And, in the end, you get a health care system that's supposed to save the federal government $16 billion over the next ten years.

The only thing is with all the tweaks and manipulations, the system they've set up only looks more and more complicated, with more and more points of failure where things can go the way you don't expect them.
