The Affordable Care Act, also known as Obamacare, is a federal statute signed into law by Obama on March 23, 2010. Together with the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act Amendment, it represents the most significant regulatory reconstruction of the US healthcare system since the passage of Medicare and Medicaid in 1965.

Trump is known as a sharp critic of Obama’s signature of the health care bill, which aims to make medical care accessible and affordable to every American.

In August, 2015, a survey of US health care consumers by Deloitte Center for Health Solutions revealed that only 30 percent of all Obamacare subscribers were satisfied with their insurance plan.
