The HCR bill is a mess and by itself is unlikely to lower administrative costs (I think it could well reduce costs by promoting preventative care though).

I see it mostly as the first step towards a real healthcare system that is able to reduce administrative costs. Allowing people to buy into Medicaid at cost would be the logical next step - I believe Medicaid’s overhead is lower than the private insurers’.
