Trump: What Does He Mean For Healthcare?

President-elect Donald Trump focused on the Affordable Care Act (ACA) during his campaign, so what can we expect during his administration in regards to the US Healthcare?

The Trump Administration will probably ask Congress not only to cut the taxes levied on businesses and the rich to finance Obamacare benefits for 20 to 30 million low and middle-income Americans, they also plan to slash federal commitments to Medicaid, giving states the autonomy to change their health care program for the poor and elderly.
