Trump has repeatedly vowed to repeal the Affordable Care Act ("Obamacare"). His 2000 book, The America We Deserve, argued strongly for a single-payer healthcare system based on the Canadian model. Although remarks from Trump as recently as January 2015 seem to hold up foreign single-payer healthcare systems as models to emulate. and his September 2015 remarks indicate support for government-funded universal healthcare, during the 2016 campaign Trump has distanced himself from a single-payer system without providing clarity about his present proposals. In March 2016, Trump's campaign released a platform summary which included a variety of free-market reforms including provisions to allow health insurance to be sold across state lines, enable individuals to deduct health insurance premiums, expand health savings accounts, and give more control of Medicaid to the states.
