If anything the ACA has actually slowed the increasing cost of actual health care.  If you can afford coverage, but can't actually use it, that's because health care is ridiculously expensive in this country.  Preventative care is completely covered under your ACA compliant policy.  
Unless we are going to start letting Americans just die in the street we will all pay for this "free healthcare".  We paid for it before the ACA, and we will pay for it if the ACA is abolished.
