RE: Repealing the Affordable Care Act will kill more than 43,000 people annually

The article seems to be saying that being uninsured is linked to mortality. I agree. The article concludes that around 45 000 deaths in the US annually are linked to the decedents not having adequate health insurance. Again, I agree. But neither of these address the claims of the OP, that repealing the ACA will result in 43 000 deaths per year. These claims regard one specific insurance scheme, not insurance generally.
