UHC, Aetna, Coventry, Wellcare, WellMed, and Humana could all be a part of this move.

And Trump was supposed to be the world's greatest deal maker.   "On day 1" we were supposed to repeal and replace the ACA. 

Seriously, though, my understanding of the new plan is that it shrinks Medicaid, cuts the Obamacare-related taxes, and ends the mandate.   That seems like a straight-up repeal to me.   So let's get on with it.   They complain, complain, complain, and promise, promise, promise, and they can't manage to get anything done, in spite of having both houses of Congress and the "world's greatest deal maker" in the White House.  

Sometimes I think they'd rather fail so they can still complain about Obamacare.

Those are 3 issues, but there's thousands of pages of the ACA they either want to keep or are to far down the implementation path to stop. The new problem is MACRA and the shift to value based reimbursement, a bain to providers and a boon to the insurance companies.
