I think it will take a stronger, more forceful president than Obama to bring about improvements. He can force ordinary citizens to buy insurance, but as a champion of the free market he can't control how much insurance companies charge. I think it's ludicrous and a total rip off that we have to pay a premium and a deductible and a co-pay.
But the repugnanticans who oppose Obama want even weaker president. They want to take the country back to the pre-Franklin Roosevelt days where there was no health care, no social security, no unions. If you're old and sick, you're just out of luck. There may be a handful of people old enough to remember those days. All anyone knows now is they are being forced to pay to make people's lives better, and they are pissed.
I do remember Reagan cut funding for Alzheimer's research, then guess what he died from?

The god who allows children to be raped out of respect for the free will choice of the rapist, but punishes gay men for engaging in mutually consensual sex couldn't possibly be responsible for an intelligently designed universe.
