No, there's another option: Health care company profits could go down. (But I suspect that people who want both (2) and (4) overestimate how far they can go before they reach zero, at which point we quit having health care companies, and then we have no health care coverage...)

Either way you're going to be reducing rent (ie, gaining market efficiency) until you're not doing that anymore. There are testable ways to evaluate the market's ability to handle cost reductions and operate effectively. Even better that California can rely on the US and Canadian market overall to compare itself.
