New York Times editorial:

Critics of the current bills regularly complain that they do little to…slow the relentless and rapid rise of medical spending.

That is largely true, and for a very good reason: Nobody really knows what reforms would work. All of the pending bills would spend money on various studies, demonstrations and pilot projects in the expectation that some might pan out.
