Can you expand on what you mean by "in that light, a ten percent reduction in cost is meaningless."?

that "ten percent less" of a payment is no longer being paid by particular patients, it's being paid by everyone.
that's like saying, "chris wasn't sick, but don't worry, though 50% of his salary is now gone so everyone has healthcare, he's paying 10% less."
