Higher the number of pages in a regulation harder it is for the representatives to read and study. The compliance cost goes significantly higher for all the stakeholders making entire healthcare more expensive all people and since IRS is roped in this cost is also passed on to entire population of United States including those who are not residing in USA and have never made a visit to a doctor in a given financial year.

Reform generally means government gives up control in favor of market so people can get what they want, forcing people to buy insurance is not reform it is tyranny.

There is a good reason why US constitution is just 4 pages and not 400 thousand.

Representatives don't read and study most regulations, since regulations are issued by appointed regulatory bodies to implement legislation, not elected legislative bodies.

No, that's what "privatization" means. Privatization can be a reform, but it is not what reform means generally.
