So lets just say the savings as described in the article by not paying doctors as much would be $100billion (cut doctors salaries by half). Spending on US Healthcare was in 2015-16 was $3.2 trillion. Assuming there are no side effects in the market (such as number of students entering medical school would decrease etc) the $100 billion in savings is 3.1% which is a very small figure.
