Systemic reform of health care in the United States. Obamacare versus Trumpcare

Summary/Abstract: The purpose of the article is to present the complexity of the US health insurance system and the changes it brings in Obamacare against the background of reform proposals pushed forward and run by the new US presidential administration (Trumpcare). An attempt will be made to compare the two reform proposals for the health care – Obamacare versus Trumpcare in the light of the assessment of the changes implemented by Barack Obama since 2013 as well as the political implications of the new proposals put forward by current President Trump. The US health care system stakeholders environment is very divided in Obamacare’s and President Trump’s new proposals assessment. The new change is backed by insurance corporations. Meanwhile, the largest American medical association, the American Medical Association, has sent to the leaders of both parties in the Senate a statement stating that it supported Obamacare because it was a significant improvement over its previous status quo. At this stage, presenting the whole formula of a new change is difficult due to unfinished legislative process.
