Better health lifestyles help. Preventive health care helps. A better understanding of DNA studies to detect inherited disease is also a factor. better technology.
As to insurance a subsidy of some sort is a reality.
The truth of the matter is that Obamacare in the long run ended up with the same number of people without insurance.
Obamacare was a solution waiting for a problem.
Better that the government looked at those who did not have coverage and provided some sort of subsidized catastrophic insurance and let the health and insurance in tact
But Obama was really after control of healthcare with a single payer plan owing to his socialist ideology and desire to control.
Human nature dictates that despite its dismal results of Obamacare people will demand a continuation in some form.

That may have been true at the beginning, however all pretense of that went out the window went out the window when the insurance company refused to cover a newborn baby with a heart defect!
I agree with the preexisting condition clause in the new Healthcare Bill if the states were not able to opt out. If the reporting is correct this preexisting condition cause is time limited.
