<p>First of all, <code>好点了吗</code> is same with <code>好一点了吗</code>. <br> 
Yes, the word <code>一点</code> means "one o'clock", but also means "a little bit". <br> Sometimes, we say <code>一点点</code> for emphasis, means "liiiiittle bit".</p>

<p>Well, to explain the objective of the question. <br>
It is NOT asking if your health (or 100 HP) recovered from 50 to 51, which is really "little" <br>
It is supposed to ask for any progress of recovery, which can be positive news.</p>

<p>In the following sentence, what is the meaning of 点? </p>

<pre><code>你现在好点了吗？
Are you a bit better now?
</code></pre>

<p>I've only seen 点 used to note the hour. If I had to translate from the English, I would probably have guessed "你现在好了吗?".</p>

“一点” can also mean “a little bit”, so “好一点” means “a bit better”. “点” here is probably just short for “一点”.
