I have a feeling the healthcare stuff might get kicked until after the 2018 election. As you say, as it is written, it has no chance of passing the Senate and very little chance of passing the House. They can't change it to make the far right happy or they will lose the moderates and they can't ignore the far right as they control too many seats. After some initial failure, they might decide to wait and hope they pick up seats in the next election so they can overcome a filibuster and maybe work around the far right.
Of course, you never know what could happen in an election even if they don't lose control of either house, losing seats in either house will make it so that it is nearly impossible to do anything without the Democrats.
