Making the attempt very expensive in the short run, with the longer run pay off uncertain.

Indeed. You couldn't cut those rates in the short term, especially after you've added the cost of the incentive program to the cost of regular health care. Even assuming it works, you wouldn't get the cost payoff for decades so you could hardly cut the premium in half now, if at all.
